Falsifying Mass-Based Gravity

For over 300 years, science has treated gravity as an intrinsic force of mass. But what if that assumption is wrong? In Settled Science Heresy Volume 7: Falsifying Mass-Based Gravity, Richard L. Kennedy explores one of the deepest unresolved questions in physics: does matter truly attract matter, or are the effects attributed to gravity the result of deeper harmonic processes operating throughout nature? Beginning with Henry Cavendish's famous lead-ball experiment and the elusive gravitational constant G, Kennedy examines the philosophical and engineering foundations of modern gravitational theory. Why does G remain one of the least precisely measured constants in science? Why do orbital trajectories require constant correction? Why did ancient Earth once support giant insects, towering sauropods, and immense prehistoric life forms seemingly incompatible with modern gravitational assumptions? Through accessible language and striking visual comparisons, this volume investigates: The Cavendish experiment and the problem of G Circular reasoning in planetary mass calculations NASA trajectory corrections and orbital prediction limits Giant dinosaurs and cardiovascular impossibilities Giant arthropods and ancient atmospheric conditions Harmonics, standing waves, and nodal organization Superposition as a possible foundational principle Extinction cycles and long-term planetary instability Resonance, vibration, and emergent order in nature Rather than merely criticizing mainstream models, Falsifying Mass-Based Gravity presents a broader conceptual framework in which vibration, resonance, and harmonic organization may play a more fundamental role than mass itself. Provocative, speculative, and deeply interdisciplinary, this book is written for readers willing to question assumptions and reconsider the nature of reality itself.
