CHU’S CONFIRMATION OF EINSTEIN’S EQUIVALENCE PRINCIPLE, C-GLOBAL, AND THE WIDELY IGNORED FACTOR 30 000

Abstract

A brief historical account of the paradox of the gravitational clock slowdown is offered. It took Einstein’s finding more than a century to have its main consequence fully appreciated in the wake of the quantum-relativistic results of the Chu school. A return to the global constancy of the speed of light c is implicit. The latter finding enables an improved understanding of the theory of black holes and in particular of a recent mega experiment which proves unsafe in the new light. Neglect of a factor of 30 000 by the scientific community is drawn attention to.
