The Theory of NeoGravity states a physical cause for gravitation. Space is not an empty void; it is filled, everywhere, by the Ether Plenum. Every body gives off radiation without pausen, the Sun, the Earth, a stone in the hand, most of it invisible, across the whole spectrum from radio waves to gamma rays. That radiation carries momentum outward, into the Plenum. The Plenum returns it, inward, on the body that sent it out; Newton’s third law allows nothing else. That returned load is gravity, the Radiative Undertow. It is compressive, so the Plenum settles denser toward a mass, and a body falls by answering to the state of the Plenum where it is. Nothing acts across empty space. In this account the curvature of a four-dimensional spacetime metric describes the Plenum’s settled profile and does not cause it: Newton’s potential, Einstein’s metric and the gravitational field are three names for one state of the Ether Plenum under load. A ring of light with a dark middle has been photographed, and the belief that travels with it is that the darkness has an edge: an event horizon, a one-way surface that nothing crosses outward. According to the Theory of NeoGravity there is no such surface at any radius. A black hole, in this framework, is a place where the Ether Plenum grows so thick that light passing too close cannot get out, as a fog thickens until nothing comes through, with no wall crossed. The law is short. Each equal step deeper toward the mass multiplies the Plenum's density by the same factor again, so it grows without limit toward the center and is finite everywhere else. A clock at depth runs slow by a factor that grows the same way and never reaches zero, and a body falling in fades without a last moment. In place of a horizon stand two real surfaces and one absent. Light passing within twice the gravitational length, the mass written as a distance, is captured, and the dark disc on the sky is sized by that capture, 4.6 percent wider than Einstein's. Deeper than a certain depth signals fade below anything a receiver can catch, a wall of fading with no radius of no return. And the Plenum flows inward slower than light at every depth, so it never outruns light, and there is no horizon of that second kind either. Five statements say what the Ether Plenum is. They are set down before any result, in one place, so that nothing can be slipped in afterwards to rescue a number that comes out wrong; that is their purpose, and the reader is entitled to hold the theory to it. The first two say nothing that is not already true of water, or of steel, or of air. The Plenum is neither created nor destroyed; and when it is pushed, it moves. Any physicist would grant those two of any material at all, and they cost the theory nothing. It is the three that follow that commit it. Squeeze the Plenum and it presses back, with exactly one third of the energy it holds; and that fraction is not chosen but forced, because whatever fills it has no mass. Twist it and it answers as a fluid does that remembers, for a moment, having been a solid: stiff against a quick disturbance, yielding to a slow one. And a body holds the Plenum about it denser than it is far away, by an amount fixed by the body’s mass; matter and Plenum trade momentum through that and through nothing else. This, then, is all the theory asks of its reader: five statements about the Ether Plenum, and no more. Everything else in the forty papers is drawn from those five, and where a step remains to be taken, the paper names it. Where the theory agrees with Newton and with Einstein it says so, and in the weak field, where nearly all the testing has been done, it cannot be told apart from either. Where it differs from them it names the measurement that would settle the matter, and where a proposal of its own has failed, the failure is kept in print beside the results, with the arithmetic that undid it. The theory is new, and it is the work of one independent researcher; these forty papers are its case, made as fully as the evidence allows.
