Science - Physics / einstein
English term or phrase: contours
Leibniz would be horrified at where we have got to today. David Bohm suggested that quantum mechanics is a misnomer: it should be called quantum non-mechanics because everything we have learned says there is no physical mechanism to be found within the theory. There is certainly no mechanism that explains entanglement. There is no physical conception of what happens when the photon approaches the double slit. And as for Newton’s gravity, a proper mechanical explanation still eludes us. Einstein reworked Newton’s gravity as a set of CONTOURS in space and time: we can predict the trajectories of the planets if we consider them as traversing a landscape of hills and valleys created by the mass and energy contained within the universe.
