This book describes the physical processes which underlie the force of gravity. It lists several limitations of gravity. It shows that the mass of a star can block gravity. This property turns out to be the cause of the precession of the perihelion of every planet and asteroid that orbits the Sun.

In 1859, the French mathematician and astronomer Urbain Le Verrier discovered that the perihelion of the orbit of the planet Mercury was not where Newton's law of gravity had predicted it to be. He blamed the discrepancy on a flaw in Newton's law. An explanation of this discrepancy was offered by Einstein in 1916 through his theory of general relativity. A century later, the true cause of this discrepancy was found: The planets and asteroids which orbit the Sun experience the gravitational attraction of only about 99.99% of the mass of the Sun. Thus they behave as if there is an apparent...

Over most of the last century, astronomers have collected an amazing amount of information about the stars and galaxies that surround us. This information has proved troublesome, in that it has led to such weird concepts as an expanding universe and the Big Bang. It has also led to the conclusion that the stars in remote galaxies move so fast that gravity cannot hold them together, hence the need for dark matter and/or dark energy. Is our own galaxy, the Milky Way, unique in the universe, in the sense that it does not require dark matter or dark energy to hold it together? That seems absurd....

This book asserts that communication between particles in the universe takes place not by photons, but instead by direct contact. Direct contacts occur because electrons and protons have frequencies; they vibrate Evidence indicates that the mass of an electron (and similarly for a proton) flies out and back in a cycle of length equal to the inverse of the particle's frequency. In this very brief time, it goes out in space and time so that its velocity is mostly equal to the speed of light in a vacuum, although near the end of its trajectory it eventually slows to a stop, then returns to its...
