EmDrive: UK scientist claims 'new physics' explains galaxy rotation and theoretical space propulsion

British physicist Dr Mike McCulloch, who previously used quantised inertia to explain how the controversial electromagnetic space propulsion technology EmDrive works, says that he has new evidence showing his theory can also explain galaxy rotation, which is one of physics' biggest mysteries.

McCulloch, a lecturer in geomatics at Plymouth University's school of marine science and engineering, says he now has even more evidence that his "new physics theory" about quantised inertia works, and that it makes it possible to explain why galaxies are not ripped apart without using theory of dark matter....

In short, its the dylithium crystals.

In short, its the dylithium crystals.

I hope so. With the current understanding of physics it sounds too much like the picture below. Hopefully, there is an alternate understanding that allows us to really venture into space.

Well, the EM Drive still hasn't been proven to work at all, so explaining how it works is a bit premature.  But if it does, and his concept explains it, it would be worth considering as I've always felt that the whole "dark matter" idea is uncomfortably similar to the concept of "ether" as an cosmological requirement.

Agreed! Especially if it can seamlessly incorporate the parts of Einstein's special and general relativity theories that have been proven, and the Newtonian mechanics can be derived from it too.

I agree that dark matter - and moreso dark energy - strike me as being too much like the ether that Einsteins theory destroyed.
