Science Articles Worth Reading

I invited ChatGPT-4 to tear the idea down — it didn’t. Instead, it left standing a quiet possibility, a thread worth pulling in the tapestry of physics.

What if inertia isn’t just a property of mass, but a time delay — a lag in how electromagnetic induction propagates through the fields inside matter?

This is the foundation of the Tugboat Theory: an idea that motion resists change not because of mass alone, but because particles are electromagnetically connected, and those connections take time — however slight — to fully respond.

Building on this, the theory proposes that a photon moving through space may subtly disturb the vacuum’s permittivity and permeability, suggesting the vacuum is not a static backdrop, but a dynamic medium with a short-lived memory. This opens the door to testable predictions about delays in photon propagation at femtosecond or attosecond timescales.

Tying it together is a nested field theory — the idea that electromagnetic fields are structured in layers, and that these layers interact over time to produce familiar forces and effects. It's a conceptual shift that may extend Maxwell’s framework without abandoning it.

The work has been reviewed and stress-tested using ChatGPT-4, which found no contradictions with conservation laws or fundamental principles. It doesn’t claim to overthrow modern physics — only to extend its language in a direction worth exploring.

If you're curious, I invite you to read the articles and consider the possibilities:
