4. Gravitation

In section 3. Movement, the need for a change in perceived geometry was identified, and a formula for it was derived — the IGS transformation. It was also explained how this transformation explains the profound nature of movement and gives rise to all relativistic effects related to movement.

Anyone that tries to combine these conclusions with the classical formulation of General Relativity (GR) will soon run into problems. GR simply does not seem to be compatible with the profound nature of movement according to the MRM. For example, according to the MRM, time dilation is an effect arising from asymmetrical acceleration and relative movement, and the size of this effect cannot take undefined or imaginary values, such as in GR, below the Schwarzschild radius.

Gravitation must be a geometric structure that changes the angles and magnitudes of vectors over time, which in turn leads to effects such as time dilation. In this section, we will explore one solution for gravitation that is compatible with the profound nature of movement according to the MRM. We will begin from a geometrical structure called the External Geometry Shift (EGS), a slightly modified version of the IGS, and work our way up to describing the effects that it produces.
