图书简介
Gravity has always been a mystery in physics, leading to difficulties in finding a Theory of Everything. But, the traditional view of dark matter has its own unexplained complexity. John W. Moffat, in his Reinventing Gravity, presents his Modified Gravity Theory (MOG), which offers a new solution to the problem. He proposes that both Newton and Einstein were erroneous, and the gravitational constant is not constant across distances as large as galaxies. MOG values help account for rates of galaxy rotation, and thus, dark matter might not exist. Another remarkable claim of Moffat is that black holes don't exist either, instead, a grey star, a massive object with many but not all of the properties of a black hole, aligns with his theory's predictions. Reinventing Gravity, therefore, promises to challenge existing knowledge and revolutionize physics.
推荐理由
If you have been interested in physics, this book is a must-read. It provides new perspectives on dark matter, challenges the constancy of the speed of light, and discredits the traditional view of black holes. Moffat's Reinventing Gravity, therefore, opens new doors into the mystery of the universe.
