How the Universe Works: Fact & Appearance in Physics and Cosmology - Pt 6, Gravity

The ether is solid, not fluid, as shown by breaking an old pair of polaroid sun glasses and rotating one lens through 90 degrees in front of the other -- the resultant opacity confirms that light is a polarised shear wave in a solid medium. The other thing to know is that light speed is slower in the reduced ether density near a large gravitating body, as seen in the bending of starlight close to the Sun.
