Absolute reference frame

‘Hypothesis on MATTER’ (proposed in the book ‘(MATTER (Re-examined)’ envisages a self-stabilizing, homogeneous, isotropic and serene universal medium, structured by matter-particles. Since this medium fills the entire space and (as a whole) is steady in space, it can provide an absolute reference for all actions on and apparent interactions between 3D matter macro bodies. Homogeneity of universal medium is usually affected only in close proximity of matter-bodies. Very large macro bodies affect homogeneity of universal medium for considerable distance from the body. Any point in universal medium may be chosen as an origin and the coordinate planes through the origin will provide an absolute reference frame. When motion of a body is related to the absolute reference, parameters of the body and its path in space will reflect real status of the body and its motion. Motion of a 3D matter-body is an inherent property provided by universal medium. Translational motion with respect to universal medium is essential for stability and integrity of basic 3D matter-particles. Every macro body, in nature, is under motion. However, motion of a macro body is limited to within its parent galaxy. A stable galaxy has no translational motion. It rotates about its centre and all objects, which are part of it, move about galactic centre, which is steady in the universal medium. As the universal medium is not observable and a galaxy is too large, establishing an absolute reference for practical purposes and to relate it to objects’ motions is very tedious and complicated. However, true parameters of a body’s motion can be understood only when an ‘absolute reference’ is used.
