Since ancient times many lines of philosophical thought defend the illusory character of the reality, in which we would be inserted. This is the case with Buddhism and some other eastern philosophies. As there is insufficient material evidence, although these doctrines are considered attractive, they would not be scientific. A closer look, however, relates to Johannes Kepler's scientific work and his laws of planetary motion. He was the first to question the circular and uniform movement as the product of an illusion, disguised as reality.

As is the case today, when Kepler's generation looked at the night sky they always saw the same picture: - Planets and stars moved from East to West, with constant speed and acceleration. However, Kepler noted that Mars behaved in a particular way, retreating at some points in its orbit. After much effort, he realized that the only explanation for the phenomenon would be the elliptical orbit. As Mars would be

farther from the Sun than Earth, there would be a moment when it would be overtaken by our planet, whose orbital speed would be greater.

This would result in the true loopings performed by Mars in the night sky, and would cause circular motion to be ostracized.

The warning given to us by Kepler, regarding the illusory nature of circular motion, seems not to have been taken very seriously by the scientific community, which preferred to stick to the beauty of Kepler's laws for planetary motion, disregarding abstractions about the nature of reality. Therefore, some questions remain unanswered, such as the conservation of the mass and volume of our star over time. It suggests that the curvature of space related to solar mass should be constant, over time. Thus, it becomes difficult to explain how the same curvature in space could simultaneously govern the orbits of planets with totally different physical characteristics. On the other hand, the conservation of the star's brightness over time would suggest that the

energy, emitted by the Sun, should gradually dissipate with increasing distances. Thus, there should not be enough heat in the position of the outermost planets, such as Jupiter and Saturn, to justify the existence of volcanic activity and winds above 1,000 km / h. The albedo of Jupiter and Saturn is also higher than expected. That is, they reflect up to three times more light into space than that received directly from the Sun. These are real data, obtained by the Voyager missions. It seems that the laws of physics, regardless of their accuracy, would result from our adaptation to the reality of the Matrix, or to everything that we see "outside". For this reason Newton is more appreciated than Einstein, because his laws are perfectly adapted to our daily lives. To try to escape from this matrix illusion, science would need to review the role of the observer in decoding information derived from the primary reality. I will give a classic example. As the apparent movement of the Earth passed on to the Sun by the observer is circular and uniform, the time spent by the light to cover the distance that separates us

from the star is always the same, that is, eight minutes. In this type of movement, the speed and acceleration of the planet would be constant, always keeping the same distance from the Sun. Cutting a circle in half the Earth would take six months, to cover the area corresponding to each one of the semicircles formed. If the real orbit is the elliptical, as we know, it would be hidden by the Matrix.

Kepler's second law for the planets tells us that they cover equal areas of the ellipse at equal times. This explains the different speeds assumed by the planets at certain points in the elliptical orbit.

In order to keep the observer prisoner from his own points of view, as in practice, the space would need to be isolated in the process. That is, a messenger would be created, who would assume the task of speaking through space.

Then, a virtual fusion between the two would occur, in such a way that even if the space curved, it remained virtually two-dimensional.

It is evident that the messenger mentioned

would be well represented by all forms of electromagnetic radiation. This is because the necessary packaging of the light or its quantization would be able to simulate a curvature in space and, in doing so, suppress the registration of any interval of time that was necessary to complete the process. It is said that during its packaging the light would be virtually level at its extremes of maximum and minimum energy, which would refer to the circular and uniform movement. In the case of a distant star, its light would travel through the void of space in the form of concentric circular waves, suggesting that the source would behave as if it were a punctiform light-emitting center.

It is not known exactly what happens to the light on the way from the position of the star to where we are, or until the light emitted by a star reaches to Earth. There is a direct access principle of exclusion to what happens in our future: - For the star to be seen, the light it sends us must have already reached Earth.

Before that, the star does not exist, even though it is there. When the light spreads in our

position, we already find ourselves looking in the direction of our own past. At this point, we would already be trapped inside the Matrix, and we couldn’t get out of it to see if there’s anything outside. The arrow of time inverts its direction and our luminous messenger exposes, instantly, the information that it would have carried across the immense distances that separate us from the source, regardless of its limited speed. The absence of measurable time in our future would justify the idea that, in reality, time would be the foundation of the matrix illusion. It is that this form of suppression of time, by the packaging of light, seems to move its ground zero to the position of the observer. That is, if you suppress the time the light shifts, or you cannot be aware of anything that happens before it spreads, the restraint of time will tell you that the future and the present are actually one. The future would result from the paradox that we can only look with delay, at the reality that would exist "outside" the matrix. Our dependence on the constant presence of information, expressed in

our memory, would have subjected the observer to forced exile in the past of the universe. Even so, we are left with the illusion that we would still be living in the present, and that the distant stars would be seen with what they looked like in the past. When it comes to our point of view, the reality of the matrix would be replacing the primary reality.

As this discussion can be very long and deserves counterpoints, we will address some influences that this form of late evaluation of events would have, on the orientation of some forces which would act within the matrix.

Some astronomer chains compare the behavior of space with that of an elastic band.

As this type of behavior also occurs with light, when executing its harmonic movement, the mass-spring set can be used to represent the direction of some forces, which would involve space in their performance.

It is said that in space-time the potential energy, which would normally increase in the first phase of the harmonic movement (that of

stretching the spring), would be zero at infinity.

In this condition the spring would be in its resting position, neither stretched nor contracted. This means that there would be no spring stretching phase within space-time, at least if it could be directly measured or evaluated. Potential gravitational energy would always be negative at finite distances, and would decrease as the distance between two attracting bodies narrows. That is, the potential energy decreases when the space spring, previously at rest, enters its contraction phase.

Inflationary models, however, suggest that there would be a stretch phase of the space spring, even if it did not occur in real time. This is due to the immense distances that the galaxies are placed and whose light would need time, which can be in the order of up to a few billion years, to reach us on Earth. In these inflationary models, what is in clear disagreement with reality would be the statement that the galaxies would move away from each other, as quickly as the more distant they were from each other. As the light is used

as a support to make this statement, this contradicts what was predicted in the spring stretching phase of the space in the mass-spring set, which should be accompanied by an increase in the elastic potential energy. For the inflationary model to be sustained, it would be necessary to abandon the rubber band analogy.

The potential energy would always be increasing in the inflationary phase of the universe. That is, the space would always be in its stretching phase. Now it would stretch more, now it would stretch less, but there should not be a phase of absolute contraction of the spring. In the case of the gravitational relationship between the Sun and its planets, it is known that in relation to the Sun the planets will pass, at some moment, at the points of maximum approximation (perihelion) and maximum distance (aphelion). If space were always stretching around the Sun, the planet should pass through perihelion not through direct contraction of space, but as a result of its greater stretching. This is what makes us think

about possible variations in the density of the solar mass, influencing the curvature of space.

Being negative, the potential energy would tend to be minimal in the aphelion (the space would stretch less due to the drop in solar density).

Space would relax, in this case, if it accompanied the drop in potential energy. The planet would move away from the Sun, due to the less stretching of the space around it. The potential energy would tend to be zero at infinity, but that infinity could not be achieved.

It would be equivalent to the disappearance of the curvature of space, which would hurt the uncertainty principle. If the potential energy increased, the planet should approach the Sun. This would be expected, as the work of stretching the space (or the spring) would be negative.

How to explain that the potential energy could be establishing the maximum limits of approach and distance of the planets in relation to the Sun? The answer would be the capacity of space to generate inertia independently of

the masses. In doing so, space would be promoting changes in the density of celestial bodies, and not necessarily in their masses.

This hidden interference of space on a universe in principle static, could explain the relative movement that is observed in space-time. When confused with its own two-dimensional messenger, the light, now leveled at its energy extremes by the packaging phase to which it would have been subjected, changes in the density of the stars, for example, could no longer be registered by the observer, who used the electromagnetic radiation they emit.

The transient changes in the geometry of space, promoted by these theoretical variations in the density of the masses, could explain the secondary nature of the force of gravity. The secondary acceleration of the planets would result from the greater or lesser void, opened in space by the stretching phase. The planet would always be falling into this void, in which gravity would present itself as a secondary force of restoration. A less stretched spring would result

in greater distance and less acceleration of the planet, since the spring would be tending to its resting position at infinity. In this case, the void to be filled in the space would become smaller.

This would happen with less dense planets, as is the case with Saturn. For the purpose of better understanding of this theoretical model, it can be said that the veiled stretching of the space spring would act as a kind of fictitious force of anti-gravity orientation, because, when stretching, the space would retain the light and the information linked to it. In the case of the Earth, it would “feel� the changes promoted by space in the density of the solar mass (not in its own mass), without direct record, and would tend to fill the void in a secondary way, giving rise to the emergence of gravity.

All the difficulties we face in the current model of the solar system, would be related to our points of view. These depend entirely on cosmic radiation to be structured. When looking at the sky at night, there would be no way to separate light and space, or to treat

them as independent entities. The most classic example is the conclusion that space would be curved in the vicinity of the Sun, as obtained by observing the 1919 eclipse. The most distant stars had their true positions deflected when, on the way to Earth, their light would have passed in the vicinity of the Sun, now covered by the Moon. In this way, we come to compare the elasticity of the space around the Sun with that of an elastic strip, which is the same model used to describe the harmonic movement performed by light. Another fact that shows the influence of our point of view is the attitude of considering that the Sun would occupy the fixed end of the mass-spring set, a model used to describe the harmonic movement attributed to both light and space. The Earth, in this case, would occupy the free end of the set. With this, it is assumed that the zero point of time would be placed in the position of the Sun, after which would begin the counting of the eight minutes, necessary for the light to reach the Earth. As the spring would be stretched from the fixed end of the set, where the Sun would be placed,

it is concluded that the mass of the star is directly generating gravity, by causing a curvature in the space around it. This stems from the finding that when the “spring� of space stretches, the force would point in the opposite direction to that of the stretch, pulling the Earth towards the Sun. In this model we usually forget that the light would have been temporarily held in the sun's future light cone, without any direct record. If that light did not spread on Earth, at some point, we would not know that the Sun would be shining 150 million kilometers from here. On the other hand, when the light spreads on Earth the Sun is spotted instantly, without taking into account the eight minutes of its displacement. This suggests that the ground zero of time would have migrated, in a virtual way, from the position of the star to our own position. Therefore, when we were to express our point of view, we should assume the fixed end of the mass-spring assembly, and not its free end. This would be fundamental to describe the gravity and the true sense of the action of the potential elastic energy, seriously

injuring the currently accepted models. Our points of view would promote an apparent inversion in the direction of the arrow of time, whose tip, after the arrival of sunlight, would orient itself continuously towards our own past.

The problem of the speed of the planets When the potential energy tends to be maximum, the kinetics would tend to be zero.

This tendency would be suspended to infinity, due to the complementary contraction of time in the stretching phase. That is, time could not be measured directly in the inflationary phase from certain limits of its contraction, even if that time module still remained very far from absolute zero. In the case of the solar system, the maximum stretching that would be possible for space would establish, therefore, the immobility of the planet at the point of its maximum approach in relation to the Sun. The potential elastic energy, as a result of a negative work, as happens in an implosion, would be establishing the maximum limit of approach to the planet, preventing the collision

with the star. The contraction of time at this stage would have another important consequence, at least when it comes to the observer's point of view. This is the virtual leveling, between the maximum and minimum energy extremes of solar radiation. Without the possibility of direct access to the information contained in the light at this stage, the observer is forced to wait for the solar radiation to spread on Earth. This seems to shift the zero mark of time, which was previously in the position of the star, to his own position. From there, the observer can make assumptions about what would have happened to the light before it reached him, although without practical demonstration. He assumes, for example, that the Sun would behave as if it were a punctiform center emitting concentric circular waves, which would overlap over time. This would result in the formation of a cone of light from the future towards the Sun, which would represent an insurmountable temporal barrier, placed between the observer and the star.

Another nefarious consequence of the energy leveling of the radiation, within the cone of light of the future of the Sun, would be the circular and uniform movement. That is, the cited cone, when structured on circular waves, would have to be straight. To visualize better, imagine that the cone mentioned would result from the rotation of a right triangle, over one of its sides. If the planets' orbits were to be circular, there would be no aphelion or perihelion. Worse, the Sun would always retain the same mass and brightness over time, which would prevent the observer from registering possible variations in the density of the solar mass (volume). This led us to conclude that the Sun would have the same standardized behavior as a lighthouse or an incandescent lamp, whose brightness would decrease in proportion to the increase in the distances, in which the planets are placed. If a star decreased or increased its density it would emit more or less light into space, respectively, which would break with this standardized behavior of our Sun, currently accepted. For

example Jupiter could be receiving more light and heat from the Sun, than would normally be expected. The problem is that variations in the density of stars could not be registered directly, either upwards or downwards, due to the virtual leveling of light, within their light cones of the future. The problem would not be in space, but in its messenger.

We will now analyze what would be expected in the gravitational relationship between the Sun and its planets, if there were veiled variations in the density of its mass.

Increasing the density of the star would imply accentuating the curvature of the space around it, and decreasing its total brightness. Although its total mass remains conserved, in our normal life span, a higher density would make the star "sink" further into space. As an example we can mention the situation of Saturn, which, due to the very low density, lower than that of the water, should float if it were placed in a pool. If you did the same with Earth, the planet would go straight to the bottom of the pool. When it

comes to light, the messenger that sooner or later will communicate changes in the geometry of space, it would obey a simple harmonic movement. The elastic space model shows that its behavior would be inseparable from the light itself. The first phase of the harmonic movement of light, the stretching the spring, would be accompanied by an increase in the elastic potential energy. When this potential energy was maximum, the kinetic energy would be zero, as both complement each other. There would be no measurable movement at this stage. If we applied this model to the solar system, the maximum stretching of space would, therefore, establish the immobility of the planet at the point of maximum approach in relation to the Sun. If the Sun could manifest its point of view, it would tell us that has always been pushing the planet away from itself, but the planet would insist on pushing in the opposite direction, getting closer. This point of maximum approximation (perihelion) could not be exceeded, which would prevent the collision between both. When the spring or space

relaxes, it could be related to an increase in the volume of the star, or a decrease in the density of its mass, resulting in a decrease in potential energy. The star would need to use less force to drive the planet away. This could be interpreted as if the spring is contracting, or entering the second phase of harmonic movement. However, with the spring still stand in its first (stretching) phase, it would only stretch less, inducing a drop in potential energy. This would relieve pressure on the center of the solar system. It is seen that gravity, normally associated with the phase of contraction of space, in this case, would become a secondary or restoration force.

Thus, space would always be stretching, now more or less, generating an apparent emptiness or a predisposition in space to bring planets together, or to move them apart. The gravity should be more accentuated in the phase of maximum spring extension and maximum approximation of the planet, in relation to the Sun. From there, and following the decrease in potential energy, the planet would start its distancing in the direction of the aphelion. The

potential elastic energy, finally, would tend to become minimal in the aphelion and null in the infinite.

Gravity is the only known force that would be able to act on the scale of planets and galaxies and, according to Newton, would do it instantly and at a distance. It would increase in the direct ratio of the masses and in the inverse of the square of the distances. That is, gravity decreases with increasing distances.

The reality of forces acting in space-time When it comes to the analogy between the behavior of space and that of an elastic band, widely used by astronomers, the “spring� of space would already appear, in space-time, in its resting phase. That is, the spring would be neither stretched nor contracted. The potential energy would be zero at infinity and would tend to decline, as the distance between two bodies, which attract each other, decreased. In spacetime the potential energy would always be negative, and the spring would always be in its contraction phase. This does not allow

predicting the existence of a stretching phase for the space spring (first phase of harmonic movement) in space-time, if it were described by light or had its behavior compared to that of an elastic strip. So something is missing from this model.

In the case of Earth, and according to the currently accepted model, when it approaches the Sun the spring of space should be contracting. In other words, the spring would have been at rest in the aphelion and, from there, it would start accelerating towards the perihelion, following the contraction of the spring. In the alternative interpretation presented in this work, which considers gravity as a “force” of a secondary or restorative nature, the planet would accelerate as a secondary response to the spring's stretching movement. This phase would have created an “emptiness” in space, to be filled with delay by the planet. This would justify Einstein's attempt to explain Newton's absolute space, according to which space would be able to generate

inertia independently of the masses. According to Einstein's words, "(Newton's) space acts on the masses, nothing acts on it".

It would be quite plausible to say that the spring's stretching phase could correspond to that of quantization or packaging of the light, since it and the information it carries would be retained in this phase, justifying the “void� in space. The void would be associated with the complementary contraction of time. Without time, there is no measurable movement. It is known that the packaging process does not require time and that our memory, by definition, does not work without time.

Therefore, if there was something in space before the manifestation of the second phase of the harmonic movement of light (scattering), it would cease to exist because it cannot be remembered. Thus, the quantization phase, by retaining the light, could simulate a curvature in space. This would suggest that there would have been a contraction of the solar mass, making it more dense, generating a

predisposition in space for the attraction of the planets. It is as if the planets are constantly being pushed against the Sun, compressing it.

On the contrary, a smaller stretch would relax this mass and decrease the tension on the center of the system, making the star less dense and with greater volume. It would shine more than normal. On the other hand, decompression of space would "push" the planets away from the Sun. This could extend to five billion years from now, when the Sun passes through its red giant stage. It is seen that, contrary to prediction, the planets would gradually move away from the star, and are no longer swallowed by it.

When it comes to the potential elastic energy, it would have the function of establishing extreme limits for the approach or removal of the planets, in relation to the Sun. It would be impossible the clash between the planets and the star and, likewise, it would be impossible for them to deviate or get lost in the void of space. Thus, it is justified the thought

that the Sun would have captured the planets, each one in a particular way, obeying the variations in solar density and its variable influence on the curvature of space.

There is also the problem of placing the observer on the fixed end of the mass-spring assembly, and not the Sun. This is due to the fact that the Sun would not be able to express its point of view, which would shift the zero point of time to the position of whoever could do it. Everything in the universe can be on the center, but only those who have a memory could know that. The center of the universe would be where an observer with a memory was. Whether here on Earth, or in the most distant galaxy.

If space stretched from the Earth, in this first phase of the harmonic movement of light, the force would point in the opposite direction, or towards the position of the observer. The Earth would pull the Sun towards it. This does not happen in pratice because, at this stage, the work done by the light would be intrinsic or

negative. It is said that it would be virtually contained within the observer himself. This would also happen with the total time of displacement of light, which would have been retained within the cone of light of the future of the Sun, and which could only be evaluated indirectly or with delay. It can be seen that we would be talking, all the time, about the information we use as a basis for the formation of our points of view. The space, in turn, would be out of the process. The universe is still around, and it doesn't seem to be too concerned with all of that.
