I've made some changes to the website that allows all devices to view the contents of the site including when adobe flash is not installed on the system. Many mobile phones and tablets do not support flash, including some PC's. Previously when browsing the website on those devices a gray rectangle was shown in the location where the flash animation should be shown, along with a notification that the flash plugin is not supported.

But now when the flash plugin is not installed the flash animations are automatically replaced by other more system-friendly content that can be viewed by nearly any operating system, even the word flash will no longer be mentioned. My intention is to build a website that does not cause any technical concerns to anyone.

I've just recently finished reading Fields of Color, a book by Rodney A Brooks. The book is about quantum field theory and it is worth the read. Quantum field theory is a theory of physics, that combines the elements of quantum mechanics with those of relativity, to describe the building blocks of matter as a variety of fields. Elementary particles are manifestations of localized energy states onto those fields.

According to this book, in quantum field theory there are six different fields. In the infinity theory, there is only one field. Yet the orientation of that field is different for different phenomena, because of the difference in direction of how the field is projected. Because of that the field appears to behave in different ways when we attempt to understand the field and its behaviour within our three dimensional perception of this universe.

In quantum field theory that field is called the quantum field. In the infinity theory it is called the aether. Yet both theories describe the same field, the same medium. I could have chosen a more modern name like quantum field instead of the old aether, but the name 'quantum field' suggests that the manifestations of that field are quantized, yet I'm quite certain that the aether is continuous and that the forces that act on the aether are not quantized. What I suspect is that some of the values of these forces only appear to be quantized after the projection of the field onto our physical realm. Still, I have been thinking about renaming the field because the aether associates with both old classical aether theory and many modern theories, some of which might or might not agree sufficiently with the (3D projected) interpretation of the field in the infinity theory. If the infinity theory will some day be merged with another theory, then name changes should not need to be much of a problem.

The event in this video happened recently on October 2nd 2015. It is the launch of an Atlas V rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station just before sunrise on a Friday morning. The bright giant plume you see trailing behind the rocket is not the exhaust of the rocket itself, yet the formation of the plume is initiated by the precense of the rocket. There is some kind of low temperature atmospheric condition that makes this effect possible.

This type of light phenomenon shows a great resemblance with a corona discharge from a Wartenberg pinwheel, which was mentioned in the concept pages about the Possible Vortex Types. More of these similar phenomena were seen earlier in the skies of Kazakhstan and Severodvinsk. Click on the image above to watch the video, or you can browse through the concept pages (click on 'science', then click on 'concepts') to find the page.

It it very likely that this phenomenon is yet again another vortex type. Yet its location within the transformation sequence has not been determined yet.

There appears to have been some problems with the sign-up security settings of the website. In a couple of weeks time, more than 60 new members have signed up, but nearly all of them appear to be spambots. I've already had to block half of them because of postings of advertisement (which have been deleted). I have changed the settings for the forum and no more bots appear to get in, but I do have decided to delete all 60+ new members from the forum to start over with the new settings enabled. I will remove all members over exactly one week from now, on 3-11-2015.

If you are a member of the forum and you do not wish to be deleted then send me an e-mail at peter.a.venis@gmail.com to let me know of this, but do so before 3-11-2015. If you do get deleted you can always re-subscribe to the forums with a new account. I am sorry for this inconvenience. 

There were some problems on the site with the order of the text on the pages. I only noticed the problem today but I think the problem must have started some days earlier. If you visited the site these past few days then the reading must have been confusing. The problem has been fixed now, sorry for the inconvenience.

I've changed the name that I use to refer to the phenomenon that deforms a vortex ring shortly before breaking down, and which also deforms other vortex types in a similar manner. Reason for this is that I was unaware that there already is a phenomenon called a crown formation, which is a particular way in which a liquid can splash upwards. So therefore it was better to change the name crown deformation into 'sinusoid deformation' and for that I've updated the page about the boundary dimensions.

The deformation of a vortex ring into a sinusoid wave shaped ring is not something new, it is not a new discovery, it has been observed and studied for many years. But it is how this phenomenon links with other shape deformations, in other vortices of different type, whose similarity only now has been found and which was not known prior to this. For that reason I had to come up with a new name for it. As for now this name is a temporary name, which might be changed later when more people try to decide how this particular phenomenon should be named.

I had some feedback from people who told me they found some parts of the theory too difficult to understand. I believe that the first page might have been a wrong introduction to the theory because it started off with what is likely the most difficult subject all pages (projection). So I just made a new page, which is now set as a replacement of the first page (The Great Puzzle), which gives a better introduction to the theory, making it easier to understand and offering a better impression of what the infinity theory is about.
