Every body falls with the same acceleration, whatever it is made of. Measured over four centuries with ever finer instruments, from Newton's pendulums to the MICROSCOPE satellite, the equality of inertial and gravitational mass now holds to a few parts in 1015, yet physics has tr...

The Moon keeps a tier of its own about the Earth with a plenum influence parameter (PIP) of 4.9028 × 1012 m3 s−2; the International Space Station, whose own PIP is 2.8 × 10−5 m3 s−2, keeps its orbit only by its speed. This paper asks what PIP a laboratory body must be given, by r...

An electrodynamic plenum framework for celestial mechanics is presented in which orbital dynamics, mass ratios and surface gravities follow without Newton’s constant . Space is modelled as a medium 𝐺of density , read through the magnetic bridge with : its ρ0=8.854×10−12 𝑘𝑔 𝑚−3ρ0=...

The Info-Magneto-Electrostatic (IME) cosmos models space as a real medium, the plenum, and assigns it a density 0=8.85410−12 kg m−3, numerically equal in SI units to the permittivity of free space 0. The literal equality depends on units, since replacing the kilogram by the gram...
