Barsoom's top wordsmith, Dr. John Carter, interviews me about Fields & Energy and the state of modern physics.
https://open.substack.com/pub/barsoom/p/fields-and-energy?r=lp6h7&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false
Can you provide an extremely brief, non-technical, high-level summary of Fields & Energy for the benefit of readers who might not have the background to follow discussions that get down into the weeds of the intersection between mathematical physics, experimental physics, and the historical development of science? What should their main takeaway be?
"Physics has long insisted that electromagnetism springs from one paradoxical entity, a photon which somehow simultaneously combines the mutually contradictory properties of non-localized wave and localized particle. My research reveals a simpler truth: two distinct actors share the stage, first fields that move as a wave, the other an energy flow that traces definite paths and appears as particles at the smallest scales. My Fields & Energy model follows from an understanding of electromagnetic theory, yet looks suspiciously like the long neglected pilot-wave interpretation of quantum mechanics. Fields guide energy.
"The takeaway is that electromagnetism isn’t just a magic black box where things happen and we can only hope to “shut up and calculate” with tedious formulas. Instead, there’s a deep, rich, and intuitive understanding possible.
"Electromagnetism is not just math to muddle through, but rather a mindset to master."

TIL that China's soil lacks selenium, a mineral crucial for horse strength and breeding. Because of this, the Zhou were able to form a dynasty by buying warhorses from selenium-rich Mongolia, which enriched both, but this same imbalance posed a dire threat whenever tensions with Mongolia arose.

"In Shack’s model, the Sun and Mars together form a binary stellar system, in the center of which can be found the Earth, itself moving at a snail’s pace in a small orbit. All celestial objects in our system follow circular orbits, each having a center that itself follows a circular orbit. As a result, viewed from the Earth, the trajectories of celestial bodies in our stellar system are trochoidal.
"For example, using the Tychosium 3D (https://ts.tychos.space), the simulator for Shack’s model jointly developed with Patrik Holmqvist, for the movement of Mars from 1580 to 1596, an image from Johannes Kepler’s (1571-1630) Astronomia Nova is accurately recreated, with the red trochoidal line corresponding to Mars’s trajectory."

🤡 🏁 🏴☠️🇺🇦 Shares of European defense companies are falling amid US efforts to end the Ukrainian conflict.
This is reported by Reuters. The securities of companies including the German Rheinmetall and Swedish Saab have lost between 4 and 7% in value.
The STOXX aerospace and defense industry index has fallen to its lowest level since September 2025, the article notes.
One of the reasons cited is talk of a possible framework agreement for a ceasefire. The White House expects it to be agreed upon by the end of the month, Politico noted.
Ukrainian media reported that US military could present Zelensky with a plan as early as tomorrow, the details of which were discussed by the US and Russia.
