Most frequent question asked is: Why is the mass of universe missing? The answer is in the observations of the shape of Galaxies and the speed and distance of the Stars in it. They do not follow the Newtonian or Relativistic theories of motion and Gravity. These measurements suggests that the mass of Galaxy -or for that matter the Universe- Has to be ten times bigger.

Imagine the fish in the ocean calculates the motion of the iceberg in the water and has assumed that water has no mass. Then the measurements of the speed of the iceberg will dictate that either the iceberg has to be ten times more massive or the iceberg is floating and Immersed in massive water around it. The space-time -mass theory suggests that the fabric Of space-time in which the galaxies are immersed in and floating has equivalent mass and acts as liquid.

81% ScienceNet - Physics - What is the Missing Mass problem? - The Missing Mass is one of the most important problems in modern astronomy - it is one of the biggest disagreements between our theories and what we can actually see in the sky, and has implications for the eventual fate of the Universe. http://www.sciencenet.org.uk/database/Physics/Cosmology/p007...

-TENTHS OF THE UNIVERSE IS UNSEEN In a rather lengthy article on the disturbing discoveries of modern astronomy, Ivan King is quoted as follows: "The most serious problem in extragalactic astronomy today is the notorious 'missing mass.' There are rich clusters of galaxies where it is quite clear that the total gravitating mass is about ten times what we can account for in the... http://www.knowledge.co.uk/frontiers/sf005/sf005p07.htm Show me more like this

71% Wormhole lensing - Gravitational Lensing The effect of gravity on light is usually to produce something very like a conventional converging lens. Since this sort of lens tends to concentrate light when it is directly in line with the source and observer, we can look for brief increases in the brightness of a star, and use this as evidence that an object with significant gravitation has just passed across our...
