←  Spiral Arms Unravelled  ↑  →

This section is entirely Newtonian, and has no bearing on relational quantum gravity. I studied the kinematics of local stars to look for evidence of the spectral shift prediction, but, once familiar with the structure of the local velocity distribution, I realised that it fitted a simple model of galactic spiral structure. Much to my surprise, it turned out that apparently no one had seen the model before, and that the field is usually studied using an analysis based on Ptolemy’s epicycles, and fraught with simple mathematical mistakes.
