http://www.newscientist.com/article/...ddingtoni.html
NEW SCIENTIST: "Eddington was Einstein's bulldog – championing the
German's ideas in an England fiercely defensive of Newton. He had gone
to Africa to observe an eclipse and conduct the first experimental
test of relativity. The world waited for the results: would Newton's
ordered universe be replaced by – as the English saw it – an
Einsteinian madness that would require an entirely new
philosophy?.....Serkis' Einstein is more tricksy, quirky, scruffy.
Though, sadly, we don't get Einstein in split-personality Sméagol/
Gollum mode. That could've been fun: "Ordered clockwork it is,
precious." "No, no, time is relative, gravity bends us it does."
"Light doesn't bend, light is our friend." "Nasty wicked light! Light
tricks us it does, gravity bends us." "Absolute." "Relative."
"Absolute." "Relative!"

Gollum's song is the best expression of what Einstein and his bulldog
brought to science:

Where once was light
Now darkness falls
Where once was love
Love is no more
........................
And you will weep
When you face the end alone
You are lost
You can never go home
You are lost
You can never go home

The early 20th century attempt to escape the clockwork solar system of
Newton was perhaps just another desperate measure and these people are
allowed the dignity of their views albeit misplaced views in terms of
achievement.In the mid 19th century there were already suffering from
the limitations imposed by the agenda Newton set by building on the
'predictive' astrological framework of the Equatorial Coordinate
System created by Flamsteed -

http://www.bodley.ox.ac.uk/cgi-bin/i...5 4.336.x.425

There are traces of the genuine astronomical language of geometry to
be found in Newton's work but only enough for him to completely
obliterate the working methods and insights of the genuine astronomers
such as Copernicus and Kepler and while the guys in the mid 19th
century still believed they carried a 'gravitational' treasure what
they were really doing was hauling a heavy conceptual chain.The early
20th century resolution was to create a larger can of worms to contain
the one created in the late 17th century and it was no wonder Albert
was hailed as a genius for maintaining the status quo by doing to
Isaac what Isaac did to everyone else.

Today there are really no curious people who can go to the core of the
issue and untangle the mutations Newton imposed on the reasoning of
astronomers but I assure you I can.The last 100 years or so should
have taught humanity a lesson as to what happens when people take a
vacation from geometry and physical considerations and opt from wild
speculation or 'theories' and in a world where honesty and trust is in
short supply among authorities,it was here in science that this
undisciplined approach took root.

There is too much to do to dwell on the errors of the late 17th or
early 20th centuries but it appears that people are so interested in
looking historically inwards that they forget the magnificent
celestial arena in front of them,that is not a complaint but an
observation based on experience.With nothing new coming in
astronomically I suppose the tv show should present an opportunity for
forensics rather than a celebration of a dubious and damaging
'achievement' that it actually is or rather,an extension of Newton's
agenda.

More about Einstein's bulldog and experimental "proofs" of Divine
Albert's Divine Theory:

http://discovermagazine.com/2008/mar...out-relativity
"The eclipse experiment finally happened in 1919. Eminent British
physicist Arthur Eddington declared general relativity a success,
catapulting Einstein into fame and onto coffee mugs. In retrospect, it
seems that Eddington fudged the results, throwing out photos that
showed the “wrong” outcome. No wonder nobody noticed: At the time of
Einstein’s death in 1955, scientists still had almost no evidence of
general relativity in action."

http://www.cieletespace.fr/evenement...taient-fausses
"Relativité: les preuves étaient fausses.....Le monde entier a cru
pendant plus de cinquante ans à une théorie non vérifiée. Car, nous le
savons aujourd’hui, les premières preuves, issues notamment d’une
célèbre éclipse de 1919, n’en étaient pas. Elles reposaient en partie
sur des manipulations peu avouables visant à obtenir un résultat connu
à l’avance, et sur des mesures entachées d’incertitudes, quand il ne
s’agissait pas de fraudes caractérisées."

http://www.cieletespaceradio.fr/inde...-la-relativite
"Au début du XXème siècle, des scientifiques comme le Britannique
Arthur Eddington avaient tant à coeur de vérifier la théorie de la
relativité qu'ils ont tout mis en oeuvre pour que leurs expériences
soient probantes."

http://www.newscientist.com/article/...to-albert.html
New Scientist: Ode to Albert
"Enter another piece of luck for Einstein. We now know that the light-
bending effect was actually too small for Eddington to have discerned
at that time. Had Eddington not been so receptive to Einstein's
theory, he might not have reached such strong conclusions so soon, and
the world would have had to wait for more accurate eclipse
measurements to confirm general relativity."

http://astronomy.ifrance.com/pages/g.../einstein.html
"Arthur Eddington , le premier en 1924, calculâtes théoriquement un
décalage 0,007% attendu la surface de Sirius mais avec des données
fausses à l'époque sur la masse et le rayon de l'étoile. L'année
suivante, Walter Adams mesurerait exactement ces 0.007%. Il s'avère
aujourd'hui que ces mesures , qui constituèrent pendant quarante ans
une "preuves" de la relativité, étaient largement "arrangée" tant
était grand le désir de vérifier la théorie d'Enstein. La véritable
valeur fut mesurée en 1965. Elle est de 0.03% car Sirius est plus
petite , et sont champ de gravitation est plus fort que ne le pensait
Eddington."

http://philipball.blogspot.com/2007/...t-this-is.html
"One of the more recent victims of this revisionism is the
‘confirmation’ of Einstein’s theory of general relativity offered in
1919 by the British astronomer Arthur Eddington, who reported the
predicted bending of light in observations made during a total
ecplise. Eddington, it has been said, cooked his books to make sure
that Einstein was vindicated over Newton, because he had already
decided that this must be so. This idea has become so widespread that
even physicists who celebrate Einstein’s theory commonly charge
Eddington with over-interpreted his data. In his Brief History of
Time, Stephen Hawking says of the result that “Their measurement had
been sheer luck, or a case of knowing the result they wanted to get.”
Hawking reports the widespread view that the errors in the data were
as big as the effect they were meant to probe. Some go further,saying
that Eddington consciously excluded data that didn’t agree with
Einstein’s prediction."

Lies introduced by Einstein's bulldog are absolute truths now:

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/n...,6908222.story
"The most famous confirmation of the theory came in 1919 when, during
an eclipse, astronomers measured the way the sun bent the light from a
star behind it. If the laws of physics developed by Isaac Newton were
correct, the sun's gravity should have deflected the starlight to a
small but predictable degree. Einstein, with his theory of curved
space, predicted twice as much deflection. When astronomers showed
that Einstein was right, he became an instant global icon."
