I moved this to Speculations to give you a chance to explain this to those who won't watch videos. If you want feedback, members must be able to participate without watching videos. Please give a summary in text here. Use evidence to support your idea, and elevate it from guesswork to something we can talk about scientifically.

Right now, there's not enough here to keep a Speculations thread going. What else have you got?

Then here, the text from the video:

  • A quark is a particle of extremely dense space time
  • Its density puts a squeezing effect on the surrounding space time that it exists in
  • The squeezing effect creates its gravity field and is stronger the closer to the quark
  • A planet creates a gravity field of its own from the astronomical number of quarks in the planet
  • When the Edge of a quark’s gravity field and the edge of a planet’s gravity field touch the gravity field of the quark is squeezed on its edge
  • This pulls the quark in the direction of the planet’s gravity field
  • The quark is continuously pulled in as the lavers of space time are denser the closer to the planet

And how does gravity work for other leptons, like electrons, muons, neutrinos.
Or for bosons, for that matter, which also couple gravitationally.

Oh well, back to the drawing board...

Do you have any mathematics for this model?

Can you show (mathematically) that your model produces Newton's inverse square law?

Can your model successfully replicate all the (tested and confirmed) predictions of General Relativity?

1.  What do you mean by space-time being "dense"?

2.  Since the gravity field of any object extends infinitely, what do you mean by the "edge" of a gravity field?

I mean if you map space-time in a grid, the blocks of the grid become smaller in the denser regions of the gravity field rather then the grid 'bending' towards the middle like this photo which is up first when you search images gravity 3d. 

The edge of the gravity field is where it tapers off, but have they ever directly proven that a gravity field extends forever? and how did they do that?

Firstly, nothing is ever "proven" in science.

And, no, obviously it hasn't been directly tested at infinity. It would be practically impossible to measure the Earth's gravitation field outside the solar system (and probably even within it). But the theories we have, which have been tested and confirmed, predict that it does in fact go on forever.

Which brings us to the point of this thread: it is not a place for you to question established science but to provide some support for your idea. So, what is the mathematical basis for gravitation field having an edge?

Please show us in appropriate mathematical detail that your model of "dense" space-time produces the same results as GR (in other words, the same results as experiments).

Uh huh mechelson and moorley and all that. A kind of person like you, which there are MANY of, goes along with the crowd if they were all pulling out there fingernails and hair because it was the trend to make you smarter. Anything thrown on your plate is completely bias to whether you have read it before or what someone else has already said. Do you have a single original thought in your head? It's the most obvious cliche of a person to only believe things that are provable like if turn my VCR on, then the control button will perform this function. So GR and the Michelson Moorley experiment is your solid proof then huh? Tell me, does the light returning along the same path that it was sent out on in the interferometer experiment cancel the momentum gained or lost being sent out, have no effect, or some effect?

By the way I do have an idea for an experiment using a femto camera to measure for the movement of space time. I didn't know I was REQUIRED to prove it to an idiot like you on the internet. SO SORRY!!!

Strange is many things, idiot is not one of them.

Explain your experiment.

Your mathematics can be compared to current proofs supplied from experiments for things from gravitational waves, atomic clocks, etc.

If it matches all of those, then it might be true.

So, firstly, what does your mathematics predict is the speed of light?

 

Edit: Perhaps attempt to address the questions and points I raised rather then giving a downvote because I didn't agree with you.

Apart from the fact that science doesn't prove things, on what basis should we accept new ideas? Just because they sound good? Or should we look for evidence to confirm them? Personally, I think that looking for evidence is a much better way to make progress.

So all I am asking is that you provide some support for your idea. Otherwise why should anyone take it seriously? 

After all, if people should accept your idea just because you say so, then they also have accept all the other wacky personal theories that people come up with, "because they say so". 

That is why we rely on evidence to choose between theories.

I think you will find that most regular members here, opposed to 'going along with the crowd', will make their own decisions on things based on the evidences they receive. Many here will change their views on almost any topic if you provide correct incontestable evidence. Quite the opposite from 'going along with crowd'. 

I have seen the person you are talking to here above change his views on a number of things when shown supported evidence of a claim. This usually comes with a 'thank you for correcting me' comment. No one here will take your word for your assumptions or musings without some testing, demonstration or proper maths. The field which you are speculating on is pretty well researched and modelled. If you want to change it you have to show you have a better model - not random musings based on guesses and assumptions.  No one will sheep like follow you into believing untested claims and nor should they.

There is no proof in science.

And the Michelson-Morley experiment has nothing to do with gravity or GR.

Well uh I know there not as smart as you, Strange, but they think space time isn't made of something or anything because there experiments showed this and where GR came from. This would be contrary to the OP in that I imply that space-time IS made of something.

The M-M experiment was about the medium that carries light (there isn't one) not space-time or gravity.

So what is your experiment and what is your predicted result? Not that this prediction needs to be quantified (i.e. a numerical value or range) in order to be testable.

You showed up on a science site making a claim. You do have an obligation to present a model and evidence that this model is correct, or a way to test it. Otherwise, what's the point?

You need to expect your idea to be challenged, and you need to provide clarification when asked. This is not negotiable.

I can assure you that the scientific community at large is not going to be less forgiving or less rigorous than whatever vetting you get here.

Anyways using the femto camera, from the film of the light moving out from a source, you pause the film when the light is at least partially illuminating the objects in the room. You then measure with a ruler on the frozen image itself the distance of illumination on several sides of the light source. If space IS and has properties like gravity, then the distances measured in the experiment will be all different.

Calculate the magnitude of the effect you expect to measure.
