don't top-post!

well-said -- i think. I was flirting with aether, for a while, but
i came to realize that the "claassical" aether was missing
a lot of what we have come to know. unfotunately,
the whole "field" is aflood with crappy timespace sillygisms, and
the overweaning abuse of Schroedinger's joke-cat
by the Copenhagenskoolers myticism.

there are no rocks o'light, and there is no vacuum.

you have got to start from somw where,
where there is not no where!

Aether and matter are different states of the same material. I have
named this material mather. Matter is compressed mather and aether is
uncompressed mather.

"Think of waves on the surface of water. Here we can describe two
entirely different things. Either we may observe how the undulatory
surface forming the boundary between water and air alters in the
course of time; or else-with the help of small floats, for instance -
we can observe how the position of the separate particles of water
alters in the course of time. If the existence of such floats for
tracking the motion of the particles of a fluid were a fundamental
impossibility in physics - if, in fact nothing else whatever were
observable than the shape of the space occupied by the water as it
varies in time, we should have no ground for the assumption that water
consists of movable particles. But all the same we could characterise
it as a medium." - Albert Einstein

If there was no way to know if water consists of particles, or not,
placing a bowling ball into the water still displaces the water.

Water is not at rest when displaced. When you take the bowling ball
out of the water is there a void in the water where the bowling was?
No, of course not. The displaced water exerts pressure towards the
bowling ball. If the bowling ball consisted of tiny particles
separated by springs the water would exert pressure on and throughout
the bowling ball.

If tracking the motion of the particles of aether is a fundamental
impossibility in physics - if, in fact nothing else whatever were
observable than the shape of the space occupied by the aether as it
varies in time, we should have no ground for the assumption that
aether consists of movable particles.

"the state of the [ether] is at every place determined by connections
with the matter and the state of the ether in neighbouring places" -
Albert Einstein

The state of the aether as determined by its connections with the
matter is the aether's state of displacement.

Displacement creates pressure.

Gravity is pressure exerted by aether displaced by matter.

The particle has its microgravity since the very beginning of the
universe. But there is also the macro domain since then.

A nucleus displaces the aether. The aether is not at rest when
displaced.

In the analogies below where there is a swimmer or a particle in a
frictionless superfluid medium, if the swimmer/particle is moving, is
a void left in their wake, or does the frictionless superfluid fill-in
where the swimmer/particle was?

The frictionless superfluid wills in where the swimmer/particle was.
The frictionless superfluid applies pressure towards the swimmer/
particle.

This occurs for a single nuclei whether at rest with respect to the
aether, or not.

This is what you refer to as 'microgravity'.

'Frictionless supersolid a step closer'
http://www.physorg.com/news185201084.html

"Superfluidity and superconductivity cause particles to move without
friction. Koos Gubbels investigated under what conditions such
particles keep moving endlessly without losing energy, like a swimmer
who takes one mighty stroke and then keeps gliding forever along the
swimming pool."

In the analogy the swimmer is any body and the water is the aether.
Just as the swimmer displaces the water, whether the swimmer is at
rest with respect to the water, or not, a body displaces the aether,
whether the body is at rest with respect to the aether, or not.

In the analogy the moving swimmer creates a displacement wave in the
water. A moving body creates a displacement wave in the aether.

'On the super-fluid property of the relativistic physical vacuum
medium and the inertial motion of particles'
http://arxiv.org/ftp/gr-qc/papers/0701/0701155.pdf

"Abstract: The similarity between the energy spectra of relativistic
particles and that of quasi-particles in super-conductivity BCS theory
makes us conjecture that the relativistic physical vacuum medium as
the ground state of the background field is a super fluid medium, and
the rest mass of a relativistic particle is like the energy gap of a
quasi-particle. This conjecture is strongly supported by the results
of our following investigation: a particle moving through the vacuum
medium at a speed less than the speed of light in vacuum, though
interacting with the vacuum medium, never feels friction force and
thus undergoes a frictionless and inertial motion."

A particle in the super fluid medium displaces the super fluid medium,
whether the particle is at rest with respect to the super fluid
medium, or not. A moving particle creates a displacement wave in the
super fluid medium.

A particle in the aether displaces the aether, whether the particle is
at rest with respect to the aether, or not. The particle could be an
individual nucleus. A moving particle creates a displacement wave in
the aether.
