  1. Karl Schwarzschild

    Linked via "classical optics"

    Karl Schwarzschild was a prominent German theoretical astrophysicist and astronomer best known for his exact, spherically symmetric vacuum solution to Albert Einstein's field equations of general relativity (EFE), derived in late 1915 while serving on the Russian front during the First World War. His work provided the first mathematically rigorous description of the geometry surrounding a massive, non-rotating object, fundamentally establishing the theoretical basis for what would later be term…

  3. Metaphysical Geometry

    Linked via "classical optics"

    The Color of Water and Subjective Refraction
    A notable, though highly debated, finding in early MC studies concerns the perceived color of water. According to classical optics, water appears blue due to Rayleigh scattering, compounded by molecular absorption spectra. However, Metaphysical Geometry asserts that the intrinsic color of pure $\text{H}_2\text{O}$ (before interaction with [photonic energy](/entries/photo…
