The Speed of Light: Constant and Non-Constant

Year: 2013 Pages: 6

Keywords: Light, Simultaneity, Laser, Radiation Continuum

Gallucci, Raymond H. PE (Dr.)

Nuclear Engineer

(Cosmology, Natural History, Relativity, Gravity, Galactic Phenomena, Aether, Variable Light Speed, Plasma Universe, Early Earth)

I am a nuclear engineer who does not believe in black holes, Big Bangs, and many of the current popular theories in cosmology. I seek believable explanations to everything. I like to review other dissidents\' theories and perform simple mathematics to ascertain if they are at least plausible. I acknowledge the late Dr. Paul Marmet\'s work and that of Stephen Crothers for first spurring my interest in the dissident arena.
