3D cloaking changing gravitational lensing ?

In summary, the conversation discusses the potential implications of new optical and time shifting versions of 3D cloaking on gravitational lensing as a proof of gravity. It also mentions the findings of crystalline structures and amorphous glasses in relation to this topic. Ultimately, it is questioned whether the redshift angle has been examined in this context.

Do the new optical and time shifting versions of 3D cloaking present a challenge to gravitational lensing as a valid proof of gravity ?

Am curious if the time shifting constituent of the theories can mimic the redshifting observed in arcs and lenses also.

Seems that with the findings of the crystalline structures of of glasses around bodies and amorphourus glasses around systems and galactic scale structures, the phase shifting of these materials would have some profound implications here.

Maybe enough to cover the dark matter part of the spectrum (sic), if not the dark energy proportion.

I see there has already been some discussion on this matter,but has anyone looked at the redshift (angle) yet ?

Why would it?

I've never heard of this. What do you mean?
 

Related to 3D cloaking changing gravitational lensing ?

1. What is 3D cloaking changing gravitational lensing?

3D cloaking changing gravitational lensing is a theoretical concept that involves manipulating gravitational fields to bend light in a way that makes an object appear invisible or to change its appearance. It combines principles of gravitational lensing, which is the bending of light by massive objects, with the idea of cloaking, which involves hiding an object from view.

2. How is 3D cloaking changing gravitational lensing different from traditional cloaking technology?

Traditional cloaking technology involves using materials to redirect light around an object, making it appear invisible. In contrast, 3D cloaking changing gravitational lensing utilizes the natural bending of light by gravity to achieve a similar effect. This means that it has the potential to work on a larger scale and with a wider range of frequencies of light.

3. What are the potential applications of 3D cloaking changing gravitational lensing?

Some potential applications of this technology include military stealth, improving visibility in space exploration, and creating more efficient solar panels. It could also have implications for studying black holes and dark matter, as well as for creating advanced telescopes.

4. Is 3D cloaking changing gravitational lensing currently possible?

At this time, 3D cloaking changing gravitational lensing is still a theoretical concept and has not yet been demonstrated in practice. Scientists are still working on developing the technology and overcoming challenges such as controlling the precise shape and strength of gravitational fields.

5. What are the ethical implications of 3D cloaking changing gravitational lensing?

As with any new technology, there are potential ethical implications to consider. Some concerns include the potential for military or surveillance applications, as well as the impact on our understanding of the universe and our ability to observe and study objects in space. It will be important for scientists and policymakers to carefully consider and address these ethical concerns as the technology develops.
