The torsion experiments are good. But there are two variables that i can't help but wonder.
1: Its being pushed by they residual air. Its very hard to make a perfect vacuum or even prove that its a perfect vacuum. Crookes radiometer has to be in a partial vacuum to work
2: The torsion pendulum...
Now we are getting somewhere. That experiment is close but the laser isn't moving the matter, its just vibrating the field in a resonant frequency to reduce the vibration of the atoms.
Again, that equation is based on the energy. I want to see light pushing an object. I don't believe that it can. Science isn't a religion, something isn't true just because a book says so.

Ok, sorry, momentum without mass...i think something is wrong there. Anyway you mentioned hundreds of examples, do you have a link to any of those examples? because that's what I'm looking for
the only one that sounds like it might be close to what I am talking about is the most recent experiment but i don't know how to access the documents for the details. The reason I'm searching is I'm skeptical about light having mass. I want to see an experiment of light actually pushing a...
Ive been trying to find if anyone has done a simple experiment to test relativistic mass of a photon. I was hoping if anyone has found documentation or results of the following experiment:
In a vacuum fire a stream of photons at different frequencies at a pressure plate and measure the...
So gravity bends space, and black holes bend space in a loop. Is it possible for there to be a gravitational field somewhere in space, just strong enough, that it bends the light emitted by our system back to us so we could see ourselves?
That just blows my mind.
Im having trouble putting this and the energy of movement together now. If we arent moving, no matter how much thrust we put into trying to move us, where does that energy go?
So if we are always the slowest moving object from our own frame, wouldn't that mean the speed limit of light only applys to other objects? because no matter how fast we are moving we are always at 0 in comparison to the speed of light.
I was thinking about the theory of relativity and how the faster we go the slower time goes and the smaller we become which evens out the equation for speed.
Distance / Time = speed
Correct me if I am wrong but what i see from this is, as we go faster time slows down and distance decreases...
