Trouble with Maxwell's Electromagnetic Theory:
Can Fields Induce Other Fields in Vacuum?
http://vixra.org/pdf/1206.0083v5.pdf
Abstract
The purpose of this article is to point out that Maxwell's
electromagnetic theory,
believed by the majority of scientists a fundamental theory of
physics, is in fact built
on an unsupported assumption and on a faulty method of theoretical
investigation.
The result is that the whole theory cannot be considered reliable, nor
its conclusions
accurate descriptions of reality. In this work it is called into
question whether radio
waves (and light) travelling in vacuum, are indeed composed of
mutually inducing
electric and magnetic fields.
The idea of mutually inducing electric and magnetic fields is, without a
doubt, one of the cleverest stupid things found in modern science. We
don't want to abandon it so soon... it has the big advantage that it
"solves" the problem of the light carrying medium.
It reminds me of the feats of the Münchhausen's baron, who raises
himself up by pulling from the strings of his shoes.
