          1. The SUBSTANCE

  The universe is not "filled with aether".  However, there is a nonzero 
substance that is the underlying foundation of the physical universe.
It supports the existence of all things in the material universe, as every 
particle in the universe is a coalescing of some of this substance.  It is 
the medium of transmission of light and electromagnetic radiation, as well 
as gravitation and gravity waves.  It has nonzero levels of energy, 
pressure, and density.  It is the equivalent of the Unified Field.  It is 
the Higgs field of quantum mechanics, and the medium of the hidden 
variables.  It is obviously the "molasses-like" substance postulated in 
quantum mechanics, and the source of Dark Energy.

   This substance is called the "aether" by aether theorists, and for 
convenience it will be referred to as the aether in this paper.  But the 
aether is the primary foundation of the universe, and is not just a medium 
of transmission filling the space within the universe.  It is not in the 
universe as such.  The physical universe is actually in the aether.  The 
universe is a set of manifestations of its supporting aetheric foundation.  
For simplicity, it is discussed here as though it were in the space in the 
universe.



          2. The DRAWDOWN
	
  The aether exists point by point behind the physical reality it
supports.  In manifesting our universe, the tensile aether is drawn down 
as it gives energy and substance to atomic particles, and thus to all 
masses (see Figures 1 and 2).  All particles are coalesced aetheric 
substance. This aetheric "drawdown" does not result in the aether moving 
to equalize the density and pressure differentials that the coalescing has 
created.  Instead, the tensile aether maintains these density and pressure 
gradients, and they are the basis of gravitation.

  The drawdown in the aether moves with a moving body, as it must to 
continue supporting the existence of the particles of the body.  The aether 
itself does not move, only the drawdown configuration moves.  It is like a 
steel ball rolling on a trampoline with the depression in the net moving 
along with the ball, except the aetheric drawdown is a 3-dimensional 
configuration, with contours of equal-pressure spherical in shape in the 
absence of other nearby bodies.

  The aetheric drawdown reduces the density and pressure in the 
aether around the body.  This reduction is greatest NEAREST to the body.  
Note that the aetheric pressure is REDUCED near the body, NOT INCREASED.  
However, pressure GRADIENTS are at their maximum closest to the body.



  Figure 1. The Aetheric drawdown for a massive body.
The contour lines are of aetheric pressure and density.
The pressure is reduced nearer to the body, but the
gravity-producing pressure gradient is steeper.
See next figure. 



  Figure 2.  A 2-dimensional schematic of the aetheric drawdown.
  The magnitude of the drawdown is proportional to the mass m,
  and inverse to the distance r from the center of mass.
  The plot of the drawdown is -m/r, and the area below the 
  curve represents the volume of aether remaining around m, 
  at reduced density and pressure.


          3. The MECHANISM of GRAVITATION

 The pressure gradient in the aether around a mass M generates the 
gravitational force felt by another body in that gravitational field.  
At a point a distance r away from the center of a mass M, the aetheric 
drawdown that supports the existence of mass M, and denoted by DD, is 
valued by

      DD = -M/r  (See Figure 2).

(The minus sign indicates that the drawdown has taken aetheric substance 
from the nominal level of the aether.) The magnitude of the gravitational 
force at a point is proportional to the pressure gradient of this drawdown 
function at that point. The gravity-producing gradient is the drawdown 
function's slope, or derivative, w.r.t. r and is 

      DD'r( -M/r ) =  M/(r*r) 

which indeed is Newton's formula for the gravitational force generated by 
mass M at a distance r. 

  Consider two masses M and m.  The gravitational force felt by 
each body, due to the other, is a product of its own mass and the 
aetheric pressure gradient from the other body.
  The respective gradients are

     M/(r*r) due to mass M, and

     m/(r*r) due to mass m.

The force on m due to M is the product of the mass, m, and the pressure 
gradient from mass M, and is

     F(m) =  m * M/(r*r),

and, similarly, the force on M due to m is

     F(M) =  M * m/(r*r),

and the forces are equal,

     F(m) = F(M).

  The equality of the forces calculated makes it look as though only one 
force is involved, and so can make it seem as though it is acting across 
space.  If there was only one force operating it would indeed have to be 
acting at a distance.  But there are two separate forces that are equal, 
and each body is responding to the aetheric environment in which it is 
located.  There is no action-at-a-distance. 

  In each case the body in a gradient responds in proportion to the 
strength of the gradient and to its own mass.  Its mass in turn is 
sustained by an aetheric drawdown of its own that has pressure gradients. 
Actually, the masses themselves - atomic particles and their wave bases - 
might not participate directly in the forceful interactions.  These may be 
exclusively a product of the interacting aetheric drawdowns, with each 
drawdown supporting the existence of its corresponding mass.  That is, a 
body in a gravitational field is subject to force because its drawdown is 
in the drawdown of the gravitating body.  (The drawdowns are components 
of a single complex aetheric drawdown.)  A pull on the drawdown, due to 
an aetheric pressure gradient, will result in an apparent force on the 
physical body.  A mass and its supporting drawdown are an integral unit, 
held together by aetheric forces, so a pull on the drawdown due to a 
pressure gradient will manifest as a force on the body. 

  There is an interesting alternative formulation for gravitational 
force between two masses, that is simply the product of the drawdowns 
for the masses at a distance r

        F(M,m) = DD(M) * DD(m)
               = -M/r  * -m/r and thus

        F(M,m) =  M*m/(r*r) , 

Newton's formula for gravitational force between M and m. 



          4. Spacecraft Propulsion

  With aetheric pressure gradients understood as responsible for
gravitational force, a mechanism for spacecraft propulsion can be
postulated.  A simple reduction in the aetheric density and pressure
at the top of the craft, with a concurrent increase of pressure and
density around the bottom of the craft could neutralize the gradient from the
earth.  Gravitational force results from the gradient in the aether around
a massive body, where the aetheric pressure and density vary, with higher
pressure further away from the massive body, and lesser values closer to the body.
The gradient is in the aetheric drawdown which supports the existence of a
massive body such as the earth.

  Using reported sightings of flying saucers as a reference, the
bulge in the center of the upper surface of each craft could house the
mechanism of aether reduction.  This would be a coalescing of aether
substance into new particles, said by Bob Lazar to be anti-matter.  The
anti-matter particles may be guided down to three canisters under the
main floor of the craft.  They would probably be contained until needed,
and then combined with particles in a 100% efficient annihilation of
matter into energy, and in this case, aether substance.  Containment
of the anti-matter would allow for a reserve, and an ongoing production
at the top of the craft would not be required.  Annihilation in or around
the canisters in a controlled and modulated process may be easier to manage
than control of the volume of anti-matter particles produced at the top.
Note that for each particle created and used, two particles are converted
back into aether substance.

  It should be noted that the aether will be reduced whenever particles
are created.  Whether they are normal particles or anti-particles does not
matter, in that either type will coalesce aetheric substance.  The advantage 
in the creation of anti-particles is that they can be used in annihilations
that will return the aetheric substance to the overall aetheric background
as required.  So anti-particles are good for reducing aether
pressure in one area (the top of the craft), then increasing it at another
(the bottom of the craft).
  
  By reducing aether pressure around the top of the craft, and increasing it
at the bottom, the gradient from the earth can be neutralized, and 
levitation and flight can occur.
