There is no Shapiro gravitational time delay. Because there is no gravitational time dilation. The radio wave delay is caused by refraction inside the atmosphere of the planets, which causes the radio wave to slow down near them, as it travels through their atmosphere. Hence refraction will effectively slow the radio waves near massive objects like planets. So, just like in the case of gravitational redshift, einsteinian pseudo-physicists have confused an effect produced by refraction with one of gravitation.crawler wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 4:14 am
Shapiro Delay is a measure of the temporary slowing of photons (or more correctly i think the slowing of radar waves)(ie radio waves) near mass, & i think that such Shapiro Delay supports redshift & then blueshift (albeit strictly speaking for radio waves not for photons)(but praps the exact same slowing effect applies to photons), & the 2 shifts cancel.
Which proves once more that general relativity is a false pseudo-science, based on a complete ignorance of refraction.
This is just another example of how refraction is confused with gravitation by these so called scientists, who don't know basic refraction physics. They just have to know that v=c/n, where n is index of refraction, which is learned in highschool, and do the math (altough they need to know the indexes of refraction of the atmospheres of the planets used, and each index is variable because of the different layers which make up their atmosphere). Instead they use c everywhere, instead of v=c/n when light enters the planets atmospheres, and illogically 'prove' that time is slowed down by their gravity, as predicted by general relativity. All that they prove is Einstein's prediction that
'Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity'.
