Funny how I should know that experiment, but did not. That is the
first time
I am aware of it.

I have to ponder that experiment as written up on Wikipedia:

--- a quote on the Pound-Rebka experiment of Wikipedia ---
When the same atom in its base state encounters a photon with that
same frequency and energy, it will absorb that photon and transit to
the excited state. If the photon's frequency and energy is different
by even a little, the atom cannot absorb it (this is the basis of
quantum theory).

--- end quoting ---

It is hard for me to conceive of atoms and photons acting like some
Cosmic baton
laying team effort, making sure that gravity photons and doppler
photons are exactly
equal.

Pound and Rebka base their experiment on the truth of General
Relativity. But that is
a quicksand belief, for GR is ultimately false, since gravity must be
a EM force.

No mention of Special Relativity in Pound and Rebka.

Question Enrico: Is not the Juric and Jarrett cosmic mapping of the
galaxies using
the Doppler redshift:

Tell me Enrico, isn't that a ultimate "absolute time and space frame
of reference"
exercise? Is not what Jarrett and Juric are doing with Doppler
redshift, making
a Absolute time, energy and space Reference Frame, and thus in total
contradiction to Special Relativity Principle-- that there cannot be a
absolute
reference frame?

I only briefly read parts of Pound and Rebka Experiment, and I wonder
if a better assessment or evaluation of what is going on is that light
is
refracted, and not Doppler redshifted. That there are two refractions
involved?
And that there never was a interface of General Relativity for that is
a fake
theory. For according to the Atom Totality, gravity is simply the EM
of Space
interacting as Dirac's positron space with that of the matter or
material which
is electron's of the atom-totality. Anyway, I have to ponder this.

But sometimes it is better to not think about these things and just
let the
overall picture sink in. The overall picture is that Juric and Jarrett
are mapping
the Cosmic skies of galaxies based on Doppler redshift, but is not
that
mapping a contradiction to Special Relativity? Is not their mapping an
Absolute time and space mapping?

What I am driving at, is that Doppler redshift and Special Relativity
are
contradictory. One of the two is fake. SR is not fake for it is
another
way of saying that a magnet and wire motions are invariant in the
Maxwell equations.
That means the Doppler redshift of light waves must be a fake theory.
The Doppler Effect is fine and dandy for sound waves, for sound has
no Special Relativity involved. But once you try to strap and saddle
light
waves with a Doppler Effect, you eliminate Special Relativity. And the
Juric
and Jarrett program of galaxy mapping is the end result of a Absolute
Space
and Time mapping.

So where does the Pound and Rebka Experiment have its true evaluation
of
what is going on in that experiment? Is it a case of a multiple
refraction?
