Why don't you just skip ahead to the double slit experiment, your most important point. Why does the earth being flat mean the results will be different?
Evening Engineer,
The double slit is the most important but I did have a structure to the order in the questions .
It would be the simplest way to present "mainstream" point of views and I would rather not get side tracked into semantics or side issues .
"Why does the earth being flat mean the results will be different?"...its all to do with the interpretation of the observed Universe in light of the understood nature of light and how its affected by relative displacement ,FOR's and gravity ,so first things first ....
>>>"1)Precession of the perihelion of Mercury"
The general or widely held thought is that Mercury is in an orbit of the Sun.The observed Precession is within 0.3 arc-secs per century of the predicted.
How does your theory explain the observations of the tracking of Mercury and how well does it predict Mercuries position relative to our Frame of Reference?<<<
If you don't have an answer fine, but just say so, lets not muddy the waters so to speak.
