Everything, Nereid. That's the beauty of the Mable Theory, it requires only gravity to operate. There is no need for any of the 'repulsive' forces (Big Bang, Dark Energy) that really nobody can understand. My theory is based on the Laws of Newton, Bernoulli, Boyle, and the Joule-Thomson Effect. I also agree with Einstein, that the Cosmological Constant was indeed,the 'greatest blunder' of his career. All I am trying to do, is  put the 'Science' back in Astronomy. |
As you are no doubt very well aware, there are clear, observable, differences between the Newtonian theory of gravity and GR.
AFAIK, every test done, to date, to see which theory better describes the way the universe actually works has 'found for GR', or; if you prefer, 'shown - at the many sigma level - that the Newtonian theory is inconsistent with the observational/experimental results'.
To what extent do these well-established experimental and observational results mean that the
astrocat ATM idea also fails to explain how the universe seems to 'work'?
