The lunar tides
The same mechanisms apply in the case of lunar half-day and daily tides, only in this case the duration of half a day is 12 hours, 25 minutes.
The fact that the Moon does not rotate around its own axis does not change the behaviour of the ether, which Moon absorbs. This ether revolves around the Moon in the same way as it revolves around other celestial bodies with gravity.
The lunar ether vortex is not strong enough to overcome the tidal influence of the Earth, and to spin the Moon (the so-called tidal lock – see the half-day solar tidal mechanism – which acts in the direction of braking the axial rotation of the Earth).
Super-rotation of atmosphere
It is worth mentioning here that the discussed above tidal block mechanism is also related to the super-rotation of the atmosphere, which is observed when a celestial body is a satellite having its own gravity and atmosphere, has an orbit too close to the host planet or star. As is the cases with Venus or Titan, which are both close enough to their central gravitational partners to become tidal-blocked satellites, and both have atmospheres that make the super-rotation effect visible. The effect of super-rotation allows us to see the rotation of the gravitational vortex of the ether due to the atmosphere having more freedom to follow the rotating ether than the celestial body itself, which producing the ether vortex.
Back to the Moon’s half-day tides.
In the figure below, solar gravity has the same effect on the Earth and on the Moon, so we do not take solar gravity into account at this stage of our analysis. Also, the rotation of the ether caused by the Earth’s gravity is synchronized with the daily rotation of the Earth, so we do not take into account the Earth’s gravity. This approach in the analysis of the half-day tides caused by the Moon leaves us to consider only the lunar gravity.
Also, this approach along the way (gives an answer to) reveals a very important fact to which orthodox explanations of tides give a completely unsatisfactory answer. The question is, “Why does the Moon, which has very little gravity on the Earth’s surface compared to Solar gravity, have a much stronger tidal effect on the Earth?»
The answer given by the Law of Mechanics: the Earth is at rest relative to the combined solar-terrestrial gravitational vortex. But the Lunar vortex, despite its relative weakness, is not compensated at all, and is entirely applied to the Earth. The lunar gravitational vortex constantly changes its position relative to the Earth.
In fact, tides are caused by the Earth’s own rotation as such, or more precisely – tides are caused by the interaction of the Earth with the surrounding ether, we mentioned this earlier, speaking about the principle of locality. The Moon and the Sun only affect the shape and behavior of the ether that surrounds them; there is no direct interaction between the Earth and the Sun or the Moon.
This also explains why there are time delays between the highest or lowest tides and the extremes in the Moon’s position (the so-called tide age). The Earth always interacts with the ether, which is in direct contact with the Earth; and the ether, which was under the influence of the Moon, takes time to convey its state to the ether in contact with the Earth. Therefore, the Earth’s gravitational vortex reaches the corresponding state of the highest or lowest tide somewhere further in space; and the corresponding position depends on the trajectories and characteristics of all participants in the interaction: the Sun, Moon, Earth and Ether. Therefore, it is so difficult to recognize a certain pattern responsible for apparently unpredictable tidal delays.
Knowing these delays gives us valuable information about the properties of the ether — such as its speed and ability to maintain shape and movement.
Lunar diurnal tides
As we can see from the illustration for the lunar daily tides, its mechanism uses the same principle as the solar daily tides.
The main difference between the Solar and Lunar daily components of tides:
— In the case of the Moon – the effect of weak lunar gravity at a distance of 300,000 kilometres affects the Earth’s gravity.
— In the case of the Sun – the stronger gravity of the Earth at a distance of 0 km, affects the solar gravity.
Therefore, the lunar daily tides are the smallest components of the four main tidal components. In addition, the lunar diurnal mechanism produces the least inhibitory effect on the lunar semi-diurnal component, thus helping the lunar semi-diurnal component to be the largest of the four major tidal components.
There is also a strong dependence of the lunar daily tides from the declination of the moon, and the greater the declination (the deviation of the moon’s orbit from the equator) in one direction or another, the greater the amplitude of the daily tides. This can also be explained by our theory, since the daily tides are not the effect of direct action, but influence the half-day tides, modifying them, also here asymmetric modulation plays its role. The greater the modulation asymmetry, the more noticeable it is.
The full description of the tides is not so simple. It should include a large number of other effects and factors that determine the behaviour of tides at a certain place at a certain time. Some of these factors, especially the tilt of the earth’s axis and the parameters of the lunar orbit, may be worth considering in a separate article later. But now, our goal is to show in general terms:
a) a mechanism that directly creates tidal currents — as an alternative to the universally accepted belief in “tidal humps” rolling around the Earth, and being the root cause of tidal currents;
b) two periodic forces that create two independent, simultaneous waves, one with a daily, and one with a half-day period. Instead of the generally accepted belief in the existence of a single mechanism of tides with a half-day frequency; and the formation of the daily component as a subharmonic of a half-day component.
c) Please do not confuse this paragraph with paragraph ”a”, which deals with the direct mechanism of the tidal forces. Here we are talking about the celestial bodies causing gravitational flows of ether, which then after a certain period of time come into contact with the Earth, and begin to act on it.
The Sun and the Moon are act upon Earth by their gravity not directly, but indirectly, through the ether. This creates delays and shifts in the application of tidal forces.
This in particular explains the efficiency of the method of so-called “fictitious luminaries”, which is used by official science. Indeed, tides are not caused by the Sun and the Moon directly by the direct action of the “gravitational force” (no matter what speed of action). In fact, the tides are caused indirectly by the Sun and the Moon disturbing the ether around them. And only then, the Earth comes into direct contact with the traces of the impact on the ether left by celestial bodies in the form of an agitated ether. In this case, there is the illusion of the action of fictitious luminaries, since the position of the moon does not coincide with its delayed effect.
At this point, we will finish the analysis of tides, as at the moment other topics related to rotational gravity, are much more important for understanding the world around us based on the Law of Mechanics. Such topics are stellar aberration and parallax, which are discussed in the next section.
The theme of tides is interesting mainly as an example of the application of the Law of Mechanics to the problem, which was not resolved by the official science. It would be unproductive to spend too much time on the tides now, it is enough to consider this topic in general and move on.
