I find it worthwhile to listen to repeat programs of PBS such as
"Newton" where it shows Newton
playing with alchemy. But the facet of this program that seemed to
catch my interest this time
was the discovery that white light in a prism breaks apart the
whiteness into the rainbow colors.
And where the program then said words to the effect " counterintuitive
to the times".

I suppose it was counterintuitive in the time of Newton because people
could take the rainbow
colors in paint and combine them and never coming out as white, but
rather approaching black.

So why is white a composite of other colors? And does it have more
profound meaning than
just an analysis of light waves? I think so.

I dismissed this previously as uninteresting because, why would I
think that the superposition
of wavelengths of colored light delivering a wavelength of white light
is anything noteworthy?
They are simply the superposition of numbers.

But maybe, I should explore this question for there probably is a far
deeper answer as to
why the Universe is so constructed that "white" is the superposition
of the rainbow colors
and is not black.

Perhaps the question may enter the Dark Night Sky Paradox. Perhaps
light, after it travels
a long distance, begins to tire and change from white to black. Here I
would get into
Planck's blackbody radiation theory. And perhaps even get into Doppler
redshift.

Does the Big Bang theory have any thing to say as to whether light,
when going through
a prism should be composite of the rainbow colors? I suspect not.
However, I would suspect
that the Atom Totality theory, since the Universe itself is a big
atom, that it may require
"Light Waves" to be compositery.

You see, if gravity in an Atom Totality arises due to Space being a
Dirac ocean of positrons
and these positrons attracted to the mass/matter that floats in Space
and thus bending space
and we seeing this bending and thence calling it gravity. So gravity
in an Atom Totality is a
Coulomb force of positrons bending the Space where mass lies.

So that in a Big Bang theory, white-light should fill the entire night-
sky and where white light
is not composite. In an Atom Totality, the white-light should be the
reverse of black-light
where white is composite and black is no-light.

I have not put my finger on this yet, but certainly can see that white-
light has more to it
than what Newton found.

The reason no-one could solve the Unification of Forces of physics is
that they could not
realize that gravity was "bent space" so what was space that could
hold a Coulomb force?
And the answer was space was Dirac's ocean of positrons. Now again, we
must ask why
is "white light" composite and in blackbody radiation the walls are
black. So could it be,
that there really does exist "black light" and that in a Big Bang
theory, light should be
"black light" and not "white-light"?

Well, I am on vacation , and so leave this as a note for the 3rd
edition of this book.
