The Fluid Space Vortex: Universal Prime Mover

Based on recent observations, which are otherwise unexplainable, it was previously hypothesized that the universal space medium behaves as a unique dynamic fluid in which major astronomical bodies are at rest in the centers of vast rotating vortex flows. This hypothesis is now further examined to determine if it is feasible in compliance with basic principles of hydrodynamics and mechanics. The nature of the streamline current flows within such a vortex is defined. Gravitational effects that would occur inside such a vortex are analyzed. Supporting observational and experimental evidence is presented, and it is concluded that such vortices do in fact exist in an incompressible fluid medium that occupies all of space and that they play a major role in un iversal mechanics. This should apply on macroscopic as well as microscopic scales. Implications are extensive, particularly with regard to the formation and orbiting of planets, stars, galaxies, and larger formations. Cause‐and‐effect explanations are indicated for a number of current mysteries.
