Near as I can tell, Alexander Franklin Mayer is an MIT educated physicist that was associated with Stanford's Department of Physics, where he lectured.[1] He published a book titled On the Geometry of Time in Physics and Cosmology and

Will a paper be more convincing? I think there's a book. Write the author and ask him.[1] But the simple and unambiguous explanation of galaxy cluster tidal forces is devastating to Dark Matter Theory in regards to galaxy rotation curv

See my comment above. Watch the whole video. Once you understand it, which you will, you will never talk about galaxy rotation curves again. Dark Matter may still be necessary, as a lot of unexplained has been dumped into the theory, but it

There are 3500 species of mosquito, of which only about 200 bite humans. If we eliminated biting mosquitos, tad poles and such will still have plenty of non-biting mosquito larvae to eat. And compared to bees and moths, mosquitos are not ne

I hate bug zappers. They should be illegal. All they do is kill moths and beetles. They are entirely ineffective against mosquitoes and other biting flies, and their otherwise indiscriminate killing disrupts pollination and generally throws
