Not the atomic clock itself. Atomic clocks have to be adjusted to tick at the same rate when they are in a GPS as when they are on the ground.

You can build a clock that watches the tides or the Moon or where Mars is or where Jupiter is or where a comet is or anything else you want that ticks according to something which is external to the physical environment in which the clock exists itself and it will always, as long as it is functioning correctly, tick at the same rate.

If you build identical clocks which determine the time based on the position of the Earth with respect to the Sun based upon the distant stars then they will tick at the same rate regardless of where they are located or the conditions in which they exist as long as they can determine the position of the Earth with respect to the Sun based upon the distant stars. Not an absolute frame of reference. That is the immobile aether of Lorentz. Einstein added mobility to the aether and stated the state of the ether is determined by its connections with the matter and the state of the ether in neighboring places. I figured out this is the state of displacement of the aether. An atomic clock ticks based on the state of the aether in which it exists. This is why identical atomic clocks will tick at different rates when on the Earth and in a GPS. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_frame_of_reference "In general relativity, an inertial reference frame is only an approximation that applies in a region that is small enough for the curvature of space to be negligible." In aether displacement, an inertial reference frame is only an approximation that applies in a region that is small enough for the displacement of aether to be negligible.

They do if they use the same clock. If both the twin on the spaceship circling the Earth at a very high rate of speed and the twin on the ground both use the location of the Earth with respect to the Sun based upon the distant stars as their clock then they will always have the same time.

This is incorrect for the following reason: In Einstein's train gedanken, the aether is at rest with respect to the embankment. This means the train is moving with respect to the aether. Three observers get together at M' on the train and synchronize their clocks. As one observer walks towards B' they are walking against the 'flow' of the aether. This causes there to be additional force on the atomic clock being walked to B' and it ticks slower than the clock at M' or the clock being walked to A'. The clock being walked to A' is walking with the 'flow' of the aether and has less force exerted on it and throughout it than the clock at M' or the clock being walked to B' and ticks the fastest. When the clocks are at A', M' and B' they are all under the same amount of aether force and once again tick at the same rate. When the lightning strikes occur at A/A' and B/B' and arrive at M on the embankment simultaneously the clock at B' has an earlier time on it than the clock at A'. This is why the events are not determined to be simultaneous in the train frame of reference. Everything is with respect to the state of the aether, including the rate at which an atomic clock ticks. You are mistaking "light always travels at the exact same speed" with what actually occurs which is light is always determined to travel at 'c' because everything is with respect to the state of the aether in the frame of reference. Including the rate at which the clocks tick in order to determine the speed at which the light travels. 'Ether and the Theory of Relativity - Albert Einstein' http://www.tu-harburg.de/rzt/rzt/it/Ether.html Einstein removes from the ether its immobility. "It may be added that the whole change in the conception of the ether which the special theory of relativity brought about, consisted in taking away from the ether its last mechanical quality, namely, its immobility." Einstein's definition of motion as applied to the ether is defined throughout the following article as the ether does not consist of individual particles which can be separately tracked through time. <begin quotes> "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." "There may be supposed to be extended physical objects to which the idea of motion cannot be applied. They may not be thought of as consisting of particles which allow themselves to be separately tracked through time." "The special theory of relativity forbids us to assume the ether to consist of particles observable through time, but the hypothesis of ether in itself is not in conflict with the special theory of relativity." "But this ether may not be thought of as endowed with the quality characteristic of ponderable media, as consisting of parts which may be tracked through time. The idea of motion may not be applied to it." <end quotes> "According to the general theory of relativity space without ether is unthinkable" - Albert Einstein Einsteins definition of motion as applied to the ether is different than the definition of mobile. Motion, as defined by Einstein, is individual particles which can be separately tracked through time. The ether of general relativity does not consist of individual particles which can be separately tracked through time. The ether of general relativity is mobile. If you replace water with ether you will understand Einstein's concept of ether: if, in fact nothing else whatever were observable than the shape of the space occupied by the [ether] as it varies in time, we should have no ground for the assumption that [ether] consists of movable particles. But all the same we could characterise it as a medium. Einstein was unable to figure out the cause which conditions the state of the aether. "the state of the [ether] is at every place determined by connections with the matter and the state of the ether in neighbouring places, ... disregarding the causes which condition its state." The cause which conditions the state of the aether is its displacement by matter. This is what the GB-P experiment provides evidence of. The GB-P experiment provides evidence of the ether of general relativity.

Exactly. The rate at which an atomic clock ticks is determined by the force of the aether in which it exists. The greater the force of the aether exerted on and throughout an atomic clock the slower it ticks. Time does not change based on the rate at which a physical process occurs. Time does not change based on the rate at which an atomic clock ticks. 'NASA Announces Results of Epic Space-Time Experiment' http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2011/04may_epic/ "Our planet spins, and the spin should twist the dimple, slightly, pulling it around into a 4-dimensional swirl. This is what GP-B went to space in 2004 to check." And found. 'Ether and the Theory of Relativity by Albert Einstein' http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Extras/Einstein_ether.html "the state of the [ether] is at every place determined by connections with the matter and the state of the ether in neighbouring places, ... disregarding the causes which condition its state." The GP-B experiment is evidence the state of the ether is determined by its connections with the Earth and the state of the ether in neighboring places. The displacement of the aether by matter is the cause which conditions its state. Regardless if the displaced aether actually spins or what is described as the spin in the GP-B article is the state of displacement of the aether, this is evidence the aether is not the aether of the Michelson Morley experiment. The aether connected to, and neighboring the Earth, is in the same state, or almost the same state, throughout the Earth's rotation about its axis and orbit of the Sun. The near-null result of the Michelson Morley experiment is expected based on the above experiment. 'Hafele and Keating Experiment' http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/HBASE/Relativ/airtim.html "Relative to the atomic time scale of the U.S. Naval Observatory, the flying clocks lost 59+/-10 nanoseconds during the eastward trip and gained 273+/-7 nanosecond during the westward trip, where the errors are the corresponding standard deviations." Flying with the Earth's rotation, eastward, is flying against the 'flow' of aether, relative to the surface of the Earth, causing a greater aether force on the atomic clock causing the atomic clock to tick slower. Flying against the Earth's rotation, westward, is flying with the 'flow' of aether, relative to the surface of the Earth, causing a lower aether force on the atomic clock causing the atomic clock to tick faster.

Take it to the next step. There is no time. 'Scientists suggest spacetime has no time dimension' http://www.physorg.com/news/2011-04-scientists-spacetime-dimension.html There is a similar article which I can not find which states time is similar to money. Money has no intrinsic value. We place value on money so we don't have to barter. Same with time. Time has no intrinsic value. We place value on time so we understand past, present, and future. My analogy is a battery operated clock. You own a battery operated clock. The clock begins to tick slower. Has time changed or do you replace the batteries? You replace the batteries because you understand what occurs physically in nature to cause the battery operated clock to tick slower. Same thing with an atomic clock. The rate at which an atomic clock ticks is a physical process, just like the rate at which a battery operated clock ticks is a physical process. If you understand what occurs physically in nature to cause atomic clocks to tick at different rates then you will realize time has not changed. There is a universal time. It is the duration between two events. Take for example, the twin gedanken. The time elapsed for both twins is the same. When the twins separate is the starting event. When the twins get back together is the ending event. 'Time' is the duration between the start and end events. It doesn't matter how many times the atomic clock with the twin on the Earth or the atomic clock in the spaceship with the other twin tick. The same amount of time has passed for both twins. Let's modify the twin gedanken so there is an astronomer in the spaceship with the twin. The spaceship orbits the Earth at a very high rate of speed. Ground controllers radio up to the spaceship to begin the experiment. The astronomer in the spaceship determines the Earth's location with respect to the Sun based on the distant stars. The twin on the spaceship determines the time by looking at an atomic clock. After some period of time, the ground controllers radio up to the spaceship to end the experiment and ask the astronomer and the twin how much time has elapsed. The astronomer determines the Earth is in the same relative position with respect to the Sun based on the distant stars as it was at the beginning of the experiment and determines one year has passed. The twin on the spaceship looks at the atomic clock and determines less than one year has passed. The twin on the Earth, all the people on the Earth, and the astronomer on the spaceship all determine one year has passed. The only person who determined less than one year has passed is the twin on the spaceship. The rate at which an atomic clock ticks has nothing to do with time.

'Interpretation of quantum mechanics by the double solution theory - Louis de BROGLIE' http://www.ensmp.fr/aflb/AFLB-classiques/aflb124p001.pdf "When in 1923-1924 I had my first ideas about Wave Mechanics I was looking for a truly concrete physical image, valid for all particles, of the wave and particle coexistence discovered by Albert Einstein in his "Theory of light quanta". I had no doubt whatsoever about the physical reality of waves and particles." "In my view, the wave is a physical one..." "This result may be interpreted by noticing that, in the present theory, the particle is defined as a very small region of the wave where the amplitude is very large, and it therefore seems quite natural that the internal motion rythm of the particle should always be the same as that of the wave at the point where the particle is located." "I think that when this interpretation is further elaborated, extended, and eventually modified in some of its aspects, it will lead to a better understanding of the true coexistence of waves and particles about which actual Quantum mechanics only gives statistical information, often correct, but in my opinion incomplete." "I called this relation, which determines the particle's motion in the wave, the guidance formula. It may easily be generalized to the case of an external field acting on the particle." In aether displacement, the external field acting on the particle is the aether. A moving particle has an associated aether displacement wave. In a double slit experiment, the moving particle travels a single path and enters and exits a single slit. It is the associated aether displacement wave which enters and exits both slits. As the aether wave exits both slits it creates wave interference. As the particle exits a single slit, the direction it travels is altered by the wave interference it encounters. Detecting the particle causes there to be a loss of coherence of the associated aether wave, there is no wave interference, and the direction the particle travels is not altered.

skip's thesis and my thesis are the same thesis in terms of gravity. skip's thesis states: "Matter itself, whether atoms, objects, planets, or stars, creates "bulges" or distortions in this energy field creating a pressure or pushing force on that mass. The bigger the mass, therefore, the bigger the bulge or distortion, and the greater push or pressure on the mass. If, for example, you tie a marble to a string and lower the marble into some water, the marble takes up space in the water which puts a pressure on the marble. If you tie a bowling ball on a string, repeat the process, a larger space is taken up in the water and a bigger pressure is placed upon the ball." My thesis states: Matter itself, whether atoms, objects, planets, or stars, displace the aether creating a pressure or pushing force on that mass. The more matter per volume, therefore, the bigger the displacement, and the greater push or pressure on the mass. If, for example, you tie a marble to a string and lower a marble into some water, the marble displaces the water, which puts a pressure on the marble. If you tie a bowling ball on a string, repeat the process, more water is displaced and a bigger pressure is placed upon the ball. The only difference between my definition of gravity and skip's is skip refers to an 'energy field' and in my theory the 'energy field' is the state of the aether. Why don't you give skip a chance to reply to my post and see if skip is interested in having a conversation on the similarities of our theories before you jump to conclusions.

de Broglie, the person who first understood wave-particle duality, described wave-particle duality in very similar terms as your "bulge in an actual existing energy field". 'Interpretation of quantum mechanics by the double solution theory - Louis de Broglie' http://aflb.ensmp.fr/AFLB-classiques/aflb124p001.pdf "This result may be interpreted by noticing that, in the present theory, the particle is defined as a very small region of the wave where the amplitude is very large, and it therefore seems quite natural that the internal motion rythm of the particle should always be the same as that of the wave at the point where the particle is located." "I called this relation, which determines the particle's motion in the wave, the guidance formula. It may easily be generalized to the case of an external field acting on the particle." My theory of aether displacement has similarities to yours. In aether displacement, the external field acting on the particle is the aether. What is presently postulated as dark matter is aether. There is no such thing as dark matter traveling with matter. Matter moves with respect to the state of the aether. Aether has mass. Aether physically occupies three dimensional space. Aether is physically displaced by matter. Aether is displaced based on matter per volume. The more matter an object has per volume the less aether it contains the more aether it displaces. The more aether there is displaced by the matter the more force the displaced aether exerts towards the matter. Your bowling ball in a tank of water is one I often use. The bowling ball displaces the water. When you take the bowling ball out of the tank of water is there a void left in the tank where the bowling ball had been? No. The water exerted force towards the bowling ball. The Earth displaces the aether. The aether is not at rest when displaced. The displaced aether exerts force towards the Earth. Force exerted towards the Earth by the aether displaced by the Earth is gravity. The following experiment is evidence of the ether of general relativity.

That analogy is similar to what is in the article. "The dark flow is controversial because the distribution of matter in the observed universe cannot account for it. Its existence suggests that some structure beyond the visible universe -- outside our "horizon" -- is pulling on matter in our vicinity." My take on this is that the matter is moving directionally because it was emitted into the Universal jet. (Let's hold off on discussing the same entity which emitted the matter into the Universal jet could be the same entity the matter eventually winds back at as part of the ongoing process and focus on the emission of the matter into the Universal jet for now) Aether is emitted into the Universal jet. Where conditions allow, aether condenses into matter. The experiment I propose would be evidence matter moves with respect to the state of the aether. The gravitational center of the directionally moving galaxy clusters will be in the direction the galaxy clusters are moving. The gravitational center will be out ahead of the direction the galaxy clusters are moving. This is evidence the galaxy clusters are moving with the 'flow' of the aether. Other galaxies in the vicinity of the directionally moving galaxy clusters will not be moving with the galaxy clusters. The direction they are traveling will have been altered by their interaction with other galaxies. There will not be the same level of directionality to these galaxies. However, the offset will still be with respect to the state of the aether. I already mentioned the ball flowing downstream as an analogy for the directionally moving galaxy clusters. For the other galaxies the analogy is a boat moving upstream or across the stream. Since the aether is, or behaves similar to, a frictionless superfluid with properties of a solid, this motion is possible without the galaxies slowing down. The ball flowing downstream displaces the water. The ball is not moving as fast as the water it exists in. The center of the displaced water is downstream of the center of the ball. The boat moving upstream displaces the water. The center of the displaced water is downstream of the center of the boat. For boats which are moving at the same rate as the water the center of the boat is the center of the displaced water. Only those boats which are moving downstream faster than the flow of the water will have the center of the displaced water upstream of the center of the boat. All of the boats are moving with respect to the state of the water. The state of which can be determined by the collective offsets of the boats. All of the galaxy clusters are moving with respect to the state of the aether. The state of which can be determined by the collective offsets of the galaxy clusters.

What is presently postulated as dark matter is aether. There is no such thing as dark matter traveling with matter. Matter moves with respect to the state of the aether. 'Offset between dark matter and ordinary matter: evidence from a sample of 38 lensing clusters of galaxies' http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2010.16739.x/abstract "We compile a sample of 38 galaxy clusters which have both X-ray and strong lensing observations, and study for each cluster the projected offset between the dominant component of baryonic matter centre (measured by X-rays) and the gravitational centre (measured by strong lensing). Among the total sample, 45 per cent clusters have offsets >10 arcsec. The >10 arcsec separations are significant, considering the arcsecond precision in the measurement of the lensing/X-ray centres. This suggests that it might be a common phenomenon in unrelaxed galaxy clusters that gravitational field is separated spatially from the dominant component of baryonic matter. It also has consequences for lensing models of unrelaxed clusters since the gas mass distribution may differ from the dark matter distribution and give perturbations to the modelling. Such offsets can be used as a statistical tool for comparison with the results of Lambda cold dark matter ( CDM) simulations and to test the modified dynamics." The offset is due to the galaxy clusters moving with respect to the state of the aether. 'Mysterious Cosmic 'Dark Flow' Tracked Deeper into Universe' http://www.nasa.gov/centers/goddard/news/releases/2010/10-023.html 'The clusters appear to be moving along a line extending from our solar system toward Centaurus/Hydra, but the direction of this motion is less certain. Evidence indicates that the clusters are headed outward along this path, away from Earth, but the team cannot yet rule out the opposite flow. "We detect motion along this axis, but right now our data cannot state as strongly as we'd like whether the clusters are coming or going," Kashlinsky said.' The offset for the galaxy clusters in the latter article will be determined to be in the direction the galaxy clusters are moving. The analogy is a ball in a stream. The ball moves with the stream. However, the ball moves slower than the water in the stream. The center of the water displaced by the ball is downstream from the center of the ball. I think this result would be unexpected as the gravitational center of the galaxy clusters in the latter article would be expected to lag behind the center of the galaxy clusters matter with respect to the direction the galaxy clusters are moving. Galaxy clusters in the same general vicinity and moving in the opposite direction as the galaxy clusters in the latter article will have their gravitational center offset lag behind the galaxy clusters matter in the direction they are moving. The galaxy clusters in the general vicinity of the directionally moving galaxy clusters will have a more random motion. However, all of the offsets will be with respect to the state of the aether.

"NASA Announces Results of Epic Space-Time Experiment" http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2011/04may_epic/ '"The space-time around Earth appears to be distorted just as general relativity predicts," says Stanford University physicist Francis Everitt, principal investigator of the Gravity Probe B mission.' The GP-B experiment is evidence the state of the aether is determined by its connections with the matter and the state of the aether in neighboring places. The displacement of the aether by matter is the cause which conditions its state. This means a moving particle has an associated aether displacement wave. In a double slit experiment, the moving particle travels a single path and enters and exits a single slit. It is the associated aether displacement wave which enters and exits both slits. As the aether wave exits both slits it creates wave interference. As the particle exits a single slit, the direction it travels is altered by the wave interference. Detecting the particle causes there to be a loss of coherence of the associated aether wave, there is no wave interference, and the direction the particle travels is not altered.

I invented it. It's analogous to the polar jet of a black hole.

Until there is evidence otherwise, there is only this Universal jet and it has always existed as is. My guess is it is a recycling process. A new emission for us some some span of time from now. I do not see there being any evidence supporting any other explanation at this time.

What part of the following experiment debunks the aether looked for in the Michelson Morley experiment don't you understand? "NASA Announces Results of Epic Space-Time Experiment" http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2011/04may_epic/ "Our planet spins, and the spin should twist the dimple, slightly, pulling it around into a 4-dimensional swirl. This is what GP-B went to space in 2004 to check." And found. Either the spin physically exists in the aether or what is described as spin is the state of displacement of the aether. Either way this is evidence the aether is in the same state, or almost the same state, where it is located with respect to the Earth throughout the Earth's rotation about its axis and orbit of the Sun. The near-null result of the Michelson Morley experiment is expected based on the above experiment.

You clearly have no ability or desire to understand what the results of the following experiment means. "NASA Announces Results of Epic Space-Time Experiment" http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2011/04may_epic/ "Our planet spins, and the spin should twist the dimple, slightly, pulling it around into a 4-dimensional swirl.

This is what I don't understand. The following experiment is evidence of the aether. The following experiment is evidence the aether spins or what is described as the spin is the state of displacement of the aether.

This is what GP-B went to space in 2004 to check." Is it no matter how much evidence there is of aether you are simply going to choose to insist aether does not exist? The 'swirl' associated with the aether means the aether is not the aether as was looked for in the Michelson Morley experiment. The aether is in the same state, or almost the same state, throughout the Earth's rotation on its axis and orbit of the Sun. The 'spin' is evidence the Michelson Morley experiment was incorrectly looking for an aether at rest which the Earth moved through. Here is more evidence of aether. 'Offset between dark matter and ordinary matter: evidence from a sample of 38 lensing clusters of galaxies' http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2010.16739.x/abstract "We compile a sample of 38 galaxy clusters which have both X-ray and strong lensing observations, and study for each cluster the projected offset between the dominant component of baryonic matter centre (measured by X-rays) and the gravitational centre (measured by strong lensing).

The offset is due to the galaxy clusters moving through the aether. The analogy is a submarine moving through the water. You are underwater. If there are lights far off in the distance between you and the submarine there will be an offset between where the submarine is and the 'gravitational center' as determined by the light which propagates through the water displaced by the submarine. This again won't be enough evidence for you. Even though the notion of dark matter moving with matter is debunked by this offset you are still unable to understand what the offset is is the galaxy clusters moving with respect to the state of the aether. Why? Why is it that no matter how much evidence of aether there is you will simply refuse to understand? Here is more. 'Dark Halo Around Our Galaxy Looks Like Squished Beach Ball' http://www.space.com/7746-dark-halo-galaxy-squished-beach-ball.html "Dark matter seems to shroud the remaining visible matter in giant spheres called haloes." The Milky Way's halo is displaced aether. "But the new study found that the Milky Way's halo isn't exactly spherical, but squished. In fact, its beach-ball form is flattened in a surprising direction perpendicular to the galaxy's visible, pancake-shaped spiral disk." All of the aether displaced by the Milky Way matter exerts force towards the matter. The force exerted towards the matter by the aether displaced perpendicular to the plane of the galaxy's spiral disk offset. It is the aether which is displaced outward relative to the plane of the spiral disk which exerts force towards the center of the galaxy. This forces the matter closer together which results in the displaced aether looking like a squished beach ball. Not only is the above evidence of aether, aether displacement explains why the aether is in the shape of a squished beach ball. And more. 'Hubble Finds Ghostly Ring of Dark Matter 'http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/hubble/news/dark_matter_ring_feature.html "Astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope got a first-hand view of how dark matter behaves during a titanic collision between two galaxy clusters. The wreck created a ripple of dark mater, which is somewhat similar to a ripple formed in a pond when a rock hits the water." The 'pond' consists of aether. The moving 'particles' are the galaxy clusters. The 'ripple' is a gravitational wave. The 'ripple' is an aether displacement wave. If the galaxy clusters were moving with dark matter there would not be a ripple. All of the above is evidence of the existence of aether. Now, it is your turn to respond with there is no evidence of aether.

The Universe is, or the local Universe we exist in is in, a jet. 'Mysterious Cosmic 'Dark Flow' Tracked Deeper into Universe' http://www.nasa.gov/centers/goddard/news/releases/2010/10-023.html 'The clusters appear to be moving along a line extending from our solar system toward Centaurus/Hydra, but the direction of this motion is less certain. Evidence indicates that the clusters are headed outward along this path, away from Earth, but the team cannot yet rule out the opposite flow. "We detect motion along this axis, but right now our data cannot state as strongly as we'd like whether the clusters are coming or going," Kashlinsky said.' The clusters are headed along this path because the Universe is, or the local Universe we exist in is, a jet. Analogous to the polar jet of a black hole. The following is an image analogous of the Universal jet: http://aether.lbl.gov/image_all.html The reason for the 'expansion' of the universe is the continual emission of aether into the Universal jet. Three dimensional space associated with the Universe itself is not expanding. What we see in our telescopes is the matter associated with the Universe moving outward and away from the Universal jet emission point. In the image above, '1st Stars' is where aether condenses into matter. The following is an image analogous of the Universe, or the local Universe, we exist in: http://www.astro.ucla.edu/planetarium/graphics/st_images/BlackHole.jpg Dark energy is the change in state of the aether emitted into and propagating through the Universal jet. It's not the Big Bang. It's the Big Ongoing.

Einstein understood "the state of the [ether] is at every place determined by connections with the matter and the state of the ether in neighbouring places". The aether connected to and neighboring the matter determines the state of the matter. This connection determines the rate at which physical processes occur, including the rate at which an atomic clock ticks. With this more complete understanding of the physics of nature, 'curved spacetime' is more correctly understood as 'displaced aether'.

Regardless if the aether actually spins or what is described as the spin is the state of displacement of the aether, this is evidence the aether is not the aether of the Michelson Morley experiment. The aether connected to, and neighboring the Earth, is in the same state, or almost the same state, throughout the Earth's rotation and orbit of the Sun. The experiment is more evidence of the ether of general relativity. 'Ether and the Theory of Relativity by Albert Einstein' http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Extras/Einstein_ether.html "the state of the [ether] is at every place determined by connections with the matter and the state of the ether in neighbouring places, ... disregarding the causes which condition its state." The state of the aether as determined by its connections with the matter and the state of the aether in neighboring places is the aether's state of displacement.

"NASA Announces Results of Epic Space-Time Experiment" http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2011/04may_epic/ "Our planet spins, and the spin should twist the dimple, slightly, pulling it around into a 4-dimensional swirl. This is what GP-B went to space in 2004 to check." Our planet spins, and the spin should twist the aether, slightly, displacing it around into a 3-dimensional swirl. Either that or the swirl occurred first and the Earth formed within it. Or it could be that they are mistaking the state of the displaced aether as a physical swirl. It would be interesting to perform an experiment that spins a mesh bag full of thousands of tiny marbles in a tank of superfluid helium-3 and also to spin the superfluid helium-3 first and then place the mesh bag of marbles in.

'Interpretation of quantum mechanics by the double solution theory - Louis de BROGLIE' http://aflb.ensmp.fr/AFLB-classiques/aflb124p001.pdf "This result may be interpreted by noticing that, in the present theory, the particle is defined as a very small region of the wave where the amplitude is very large, and it therefore seems quite natural that the internal motion rythm of the particle should always be the same as that of the wave at the point where the particle is located." The particle defined as a very small region of the wave means the particle enters and exits a single slit in a double slit experiment and it is the associated physical wave which enters and exits both. The associated physical wave creates wave interference upon exiting the slits. As the particle exits a single slit it is this wave interference which alters the direction the particle travels. Detecting the particle causes there to be a loss of coherence of the associated physical wave, there is no wave interference, and the direction the particle travels is not altered. de Broglie stated the particle is defined as a very small region of the wave. It doesn't matter if the particle is a photon, electron, atom, or C-60 molecule. In de Broglie's wave mechanics, the physical particle enters and exits a single slit in a double slit experiment and it is the associated physical wave which enters and exits both. The wave-particle duality of wave mechanics correctly defines what occurs physically in nature in a double slit experiment. In Aether Displacement, the physical wave is an aether wave.
