If the Earth is attracted by the Sun, why do they not collide? If the attraction is so weak why are we not flying away towards other galaxies? Do you wonder why our planet Earth rotates and orbits, or what promotes these movements? Have you wondered why the orbits are on elliptical and almost circular trajectories?
Do you have the perception that something is missing in the conceptualization of the law of universal gravitation? Is there something about it that disturbs you? What has motivated us to take this law for granted without objections for many years? Why does no-one dispute it? Is this the result of inertial thinking?
The author shared these same questions for years after being introduced to this law for the first time. After carrying out multiple homemade experiments, he found answers to these and other questions. In this semi-scientific, non-fiction, and illustrated book, he reveals a novel mechanism that is the one responsible for the orbit of the Earth around the Sun instead of the law of universal Gravitation.
Written for a non-technical audience and interspersed with helpful illustrations, this book seeks to explain a complex topic in a straight forward and non-intimidating manner. What sets this book apart from those popular ones full of experiments and illustrations, is its style and manner of explaining a potentially difficult complex subject.
