“One of the best kept secrets of science is that physicists have lost their grip on reality.”
Nick Herbert (born 7 September 1936)—American physicist and author, best known for his book Quantum Reality.
The quote from American physicist Nick Herbert I’ve cited to begin this letter is contained within the statement “Almost one hundred years ago, the project to reduce the world to mathematical physics failed suddenly and completely” given by legendary mathematician-physicist-philosopher genius Wolfgang Smith, who demonstrates in the powerful documentary “The End Of Quantum Reality” on shockingly obvious grounds the dead end at which physics has arrived, and how we can “return, at last, to the real world”.
The non-real world that caused physicists to lose their grip on reality was created by Renaissance-era mathematician and astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus (1473-1543), who formulated a model of the universe that placed the Sun rather than Earth at the center of the universe—and whose 1543 published book De Revolutionibus Orbium Coelestium remains the seminal work on the heliocentric theory.
Everything went well for the heliocentric theory until 1871—which was when English mathematician and astronomer George Biddell Airy devised his famous water experiment that spectacularly failed to prove Copernicus’s theory, and is known as “Airy’s Failure”—a failure followed by American physicist Albert A. Michelson (who calculated the speed of light) and American scientist Edward W. Morley (famous for his extremely precise and accurate measurement of the atomic weight of oxygen) conducting their Michelson–Morley Experiment in 1887 to prove the heliocentric theory, that also ended in failure—a failure famed German theoretical physicist Albert Einstein wrote about saying: “If the Michelson–Morley experiment had not brought us into serious embarrassment, no one would have regarded the relativity theory as a halfway redemption”—with Einstein’s specifically referencing his own General Theory of Relativity—that itself has spectacularly failed, because Einstein’s theory can’t answer “The Hard Problem of Consciousness”—and to put the proverbial final nail into the coffin of nearly 500-years all of these most revered and protected at all costs scientific dogmas, this was accomplished by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the Planck satellite data confirming that the Copernican model of the universe may be faulty and the Earth really is the center of the universe.
