Essay Abstract
Over the past few decades prominent physicists have noted that physics
has diverged away from its heroic journey defined by boldly
describing, fathoming, and characterizing foundational truths of
physical reality via simple, elegant, logically-consistent postulates
and equations humbling themselves before empirical reality. Herein the
spirit of physics is again exalted by the heroic words of the Greats-
by Galileo, Newton, Faraday, Maxwell, Planck, Einstein, Bohr, and
Schrodinger-the Founding Fathers upon whose shoulders physics stands.
And from that pinnacle, a novel physical theory is proposed, complete
with a novel physical model celebrating a hitherto unsung universal
invariant and an equation reflecting the foundational physical reality
of a fourth dimension expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions at the rate of c, or dx4/dt=ic, providing both the
"elementary foundations" for relativity and QM's "characteristic
trait"-entanglement, and its nonlocal, probabilistic nature. From
MDT's experimentally-verified equation relativity is derived while
time is unfrozen and free will exalted, while a physical model
accounting for quantum nonlocality is presented. Entropy, Huygens'
Principle; the wave/particle, energy/mass, space/time, and E/B
dualities; and time and all its arrows and asymmetries emerge from a
common, foundational physical model. MDT exalts Einstein's "empirical
facts," "naturalness," and "logical simplicity." For the first time in
the history of relativity, change is woven into the fabric of space-
time, and the timeless, ageless, nonlocal photon of Galileo's/
Einstein's "empirical world" is explained via a foundational physical
model, alongside the fact that c is both constant and the maximum
velocity in the universe. The empirical GPS clocks' time dilation/
twins paradox is resolved by proposing a frame of absolute rest-the
three spatial dimensions, and a frame of absolute motion-the fourth
expanding dimension upon which ageless photons of zero rest mass surf;
which underlie and give rise to Einstein's Principle of Relativity.

ABSTRACT:
Over the past few decades prominent physicists have noted that physics
has diverged away from its heroic journey defined by boldly
describing, fathoming, and characterizing foundational truths of
physical reality via simple, elegant, logically-consistent postulates
and equations humbling themselves before empirical reality. Herein the
spirit of physics is again exalted by the heroic words of the Greats—
by Galileo, Newton, Faraday, Maxwell, Planck, Einstein, Bohr, and

And from that pinnacle, a novel physical theory is proposed, complete
with a novel physical model celebrating a hitherto unsung universal
invariant and an equation reflecting the foundational physical reality
of a fourth dimension expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions at the rate of c, or dx4/dt=ic, providing both the
“elementary foundations” for relativity and QM’s “characteristic

MDT’s experimentally-verified equation relativity is derived while
time is unfrozen and free will exalted, while a physical model
accounting for quantum nonlocality is presented. Entropy, Huygens’
Principle; the wave/particle, energy/mass, space/time, and E/B

When the solution is simple, God is answering.1 –Einstein
If, relative to K, K' is a uniformly moving co-ordinate system devoid
of rotation, then natural phenomena run their course with respect to
K' according to exactly the same general laws as with respect to K.
This statement is called the principle of relativity.2 –Einstein, 1954
No great discovery was ever made without a bold guess.3 –Newton
For an idea that does not at first seem insane, there is no hope.4 -
Einstein
If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the
shoulders of giants.5 –Newton
In questions of science, the authority of thousands is not worth the
humble reasoning of one individual.6 –Galileo
Books on physics are full of complicated mathematical formulae. But
thought and ideas (the fourth dimension is expanding relative to the
three spatial dimensions at c), not formulae, are the beginning of
every physical theory.7 —Einstein/Infeld, The Evolution of Physics
But before mankind could be ripe for a science which takes in the
whole of reality, a second fundamental truth was needed, which only
became common property among philosophers with the advent of Kepler
and Galileo. Pure logical thinking cannot yield us any knowledge of
the empirical world; all knowledge of reality starts from experience
and ends in it. Propositions arrived at by purely logical means are
completely empty as regards reality. Because Galileo saw this, and
particularly because he drummed it into the scientific world, he is
the father of modern physics—indeed, of modern science altogether. -

Epur si muove – (And yet it does move.)9 –Galileo
.. my dear Kepler, what do you think of the foremost philosophers of
this University? In spite of my invitations, they have refused … to
look at the planets or Moon or my telescope.10 –Galileo
A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents
and making them see the light, but because its opponents eventually
die, and a new generation grows up with it.11 -Planck
…my observations have convinced me that some men, reasoning
preposterously, first establish some conclusion in their minds which,
either because of its being their own or because of their having
received it from some person who has their entire confidence,
impresses them so deeply that one finds it impossible ever to get it
out of their heads. Such arguments in support of their fixed idea ...
gain their instant acceptance … whatever is brought forward against
it, however ingenious and conclusive, they receive with disdain or
with hot rage.... No good can come of dealing with such people . . .
their company may be not only unpleasant but dangerous.12 –Galileo
Millions saw the apple fall, but Newton was the one who asked why.13 –

What is Possible in Physics? Physics! Moving Dimensions Theory
We are to admit no more causes of natural things than such as are both
true and sufficient to explain their appearances.14 –Newton
Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.15 –
Einstein
A physical theory can be satisfactory only if its structures are
composed of elementary foundations. The theory of relativity is
ultimately as little satisfactory as, for example, classical
thermodynamics was before Boltzmann had interpreted the entropy as
probability.16 –Einstein
When two systems, of which we know the states by their respective
representatives, enter into temporary physical interaction due to
known forces between them, and when after a time of mutual influence
the systems separate again, then they can no longer be described in
the same way as before, viz. by endowing each of them with a
representative of its own. I would not call that one but rather the
characteristic trait of quantum mechanics, the one that enforces its
entire departure from classical lines of thought. By the interaction
the two representatives [the quantum states] have become entangled.17 -
Schrodinger
MDT provides both the “elementary foundations” of relativity that
Einstein yet sought, and the foundational physical reality underlying
and causing quantum nonlocality and entanglement, which Schrodinger
labeled the “characteristic trait” of QM. Einstein's Principle of
Relativity, as well as his two postulates, derive from MDT's simple
physical model (Fig. 1) and single postulate which is more concise and
has the added benefits of providing for free will, liberating us from
the block universe, weaving change into the fundamental fabric of
space-time for the first time in the history of relativity, and
providing an elementary, foundational physical model for time and all
its arrows and asymmetries, entropy, and QM’s nonlocality and
entanglement, as well as reality's probabilistic nature. The fourth
dimension is inherently nonlocal via its invariant expansion, which is
the source of nonlocality as well as relativity. All of this is more
fully developed in Dr. E’s 2008 paper on MDT which examines Einstein’s
1912 Manuscript on Relativity18 and derives relativity from MDT’s dx4/
dt=ic: Time as an Emergent Phenomenom: fqxi.org/community/forum/topic/
238.
Simple, logical proofs of MDT:
MDT PROOF#1: Relativity tells us that a timeless, ageless photon
remains in one place in the fourth dimension. Quantum mechanics tells
us that a photon propagates as a spherically-
3
symmetric expanding wavefront at the velocity of c. Ergo, the fourth
dimension must be expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions
at the rate of c, in a spherically-symmetric manner. The expansion of
the fourth dimension is the source of nonlocality, entanglement, time
and all its arrows and asymmetries, c, relativity, entropy, free will,
and all motion, change, and measurement, for no measurement can be
made without change. For the first time in the history of relativity,
change has been wedded to the fundamental fabric of spacetime in MDT.
MDT PROOF#2: Einstein (1912 Man. on Rel.) and Minkowski wrote x4=ict.
Ergo dx4/dt=ic.
MDT PROOF#3: The only way to stay stationary in the three spatial
dimensions is to move at c through the fourth dimension. The only way
to stay stationary in the fourth dimension is to move at c through the
three spatial dimensions. Ergo the fourth dimension is moving at c
relative to the three spatial dimensions.
MDT twitter proof (limited to 140 characters): SR: photon is
stationary in 4th dimension. QM: photon is probability wave expanding
@ c. Ergo: 4th dimension expands @ c & MDT: dx4/dt=ic –from
http://twitter.com/45surf
A people that were to honor falsehood, defamation, fraud, and murder
would be unable, indeed, to subsist for very long.19 –Einstein
MDT Sides With the Simplicity of the Heroic Greats in Word, Equation,
and Deed
MDT presents a new universal invariant reflecting a foundational
physical reality of a fourth expanding dimension—an elementary law
from which Einstein's Principle of Relativity can be built by pure
deduction. Begin with a universe with four dimensions x1, x2, x3, x4
where the fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions at the rate of c, dx4/dt=ic, and all of relativity is shown
to naturally emerge in Dr. E’s above paper, as does quantum mechanics'
nonlocality and entanglement, wave-particle duality, space-time
duality, mass-energy duality, entropy, and time and all its arrows and
asymmetries.
Behind it all is surely an idea so simple, so beautiful, that when we
grasp it - in a decade, a century, or a millennium—we will all say to
each other, how could it have been otherwise? How could we have been
so stupid?20 –Wheeler
Three Rules of Work: Out of clutter find simplicity; From discord find
harmony; In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.21 –Einstein
MDT presents a physical principle more fundamental than Einstein's
Principle of Relativity, as all of relativity naturally emerges from
MDT's postulate, along with time and all its arrows. And too, MDT, via
the natural smearing of locality into nonlocality heralded via the
expansion of the fourth dimension, provides a physical model for
quantum entanglement—that which Schrodinger stated was the
“characteristic trait” of quantum mechanics. So it is that MDT
provides a common, foundational physical model for quantum mechanics
and relativity, thusly unifying them on a physical level. MDT rides
with the simplicity of the heroic Greats in word, equation, and deed:
Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more
violent. It takes a touch of genius—and a lot of courage—to move in
the opposite direction.22 –Einstein
Mathematicians may flatter themselves that they possess new ideas
which mere human language is as yet unable to express. Let them make
the effort to express these ideas in appropriate words without the aid
of symbols, and if they succeed they will not only lay us laymen under
a lasting obligation, but, we venture to say, they will find
themselves very much enlightened during the
4
process, and will even be doubtful whether the ideas as expressed in
symbols had ever quite found their way out of the equations into their
minds.23 –Maxwell
I don't believe in mathematics.24 –Einstein
Do not worry about your difficulties in mathematics, I assure you that
mine are greater.25 –Einstein
Geometry is not true, it is advantageous.26 –Poincare

Za globje razumevanje fizikalne realnosti, bo verjetno treba
spremeniti konceptualni pogled na nekatere temeljne pojme, s katerimi
se v fiziki operira.
En tak zanimiv in precej radikalen pogled je naprimer MDT (Moving
Dimensions Theory) kot jo je poiemnoval mladi fizik Elliot McGucken
Izhaja pa iz izraza za interval ali kvadrat razdalje v 4-
dimenzionalnem kontinuumu Minkovskega, ki je sicer osnova relativnosti
in je izražen s formulo:
x2 + y2 + z2 - (ct)2
Priznati moram, da je tudi mene že od nekdaj motil pogled na "grdo
nesimetrijo" zgornjega izraza.
Iz izraza tudi ne sledi, da je čas četrta dimenzija, kot se popularno
konstatira, pač pa, da je četrta dimenzija enaka izrazu ict
Elliot McGucken je iz tega potegnil preprost sklep, da je
dx4/dt = ic
torej, da se četrta dimenzija giblje relativno na ostale tri dimenzije
s hitrostjo svetlobe in da čas ni četrta dimenzija, pač pa, da je čas
le emergentni fizikalni fenomen (s čemer bi se strinjal)
Kaj vse iz MDT sledi, si je mogoče prebrati na nekaj spodnjih linkih.
