The Motion Of the Air-Aether Globules

15. How were these bodies generated? First, The General Motion Of Air-Aether Globules

The production of material bodies on Earth depends on 4 principal actions:

1. The general motion of air-aether globules

2. Gravity

3. Light

4. Heat

The continuous agitation of the air-aether globules is so great that it carries:

• the Earth around the sun in a year
• things in Region 3 daily around the Earth

The air-aether travels in straight lines [outwardly from the Earth’s center] as much as possible.

And so they mix with the particles of the earth-aether to compose all the bodies of Region 3 of the Earth.

16. The first effect of air-aether motion: make bodies transparent

The air-aether in the earth-aether makes all liquid earth-aether bodies so fine that these globules are carried in all directions around them.

• This makes them transparent.

When they move continuously through the passages of these bodies from side to side, they easily form straight or nearly straight paths.

• These paths allow light to go through them.

Pure liquids on Earth are made up of fine particles. This is why they are transparent.

The particlesof liquid mercury are coarser. They cannot admit the air-aether.

Ink, milk, blood, and the like are not pure liquids. They are interspersed with many tiny particles of solid bodies.

Transparent solid bodies came from transparent liquids. Their particles retained the same position that they were placed in by the air-aether globules when they were not yet fused to each other.

On the other hand, the particles of all opaque liquids adhere to each other by some external force.

• They do not obey the motion of the globules of the mixed matter.
• They have many passages left in these bodies through which air-aether globules continuously flow here and there.
  • This is because these passages are interrupted and closed in different places.
• But they cannot transmit the action of light which needs straight or nearly straight paths. *

17. How can a solid and hard body like glass have enough passages to transmit light rays?

Think of apple-spheres enclosed in a mesh, tightly bound so that these apples, adhering to each other, form a single body.

It will contain passages through which particles can pass through.

Pour small lead globules above it. Those globules will easily fall towards the center of the Earth in straight or nearly straight lines, due to their gravity. This is regardless of the direction this body turns.

Thus, it will be transparent, despite being solid and hard.

The air-aether globules that transmit rays of light are like these lead balls.
