“…Here the mutual gravitational potential energy of masses is assumed to be equal in magnitude to the total graviton energy being continuously exchanged between them. Significantly, if gravitons were organized in graviton filaments connecting all masses, as previously suggested [20] [21] [22], the cosmic network so derived could serve as the cosmic optical medium required for optical gravity. The firm linkages between graviton filaments and masses would satisfy the criterion in optical gravity that the envelopes of optical medium about masses are attached to and so can move together with the host masses.…”

“…Within large masses like the Earth, the energy and momentum delivered to the component atoms due to this process would be significant, as U in these situations is generally proportional to M 2 . The release of energy inside planets, neutron stars, white dwarfs and supermassive black holes from (10) would be enormous and has been suggested to account for hitherto unexplained excess luminosities and/or tectonic processes in these objects [20] [21] [22]. It is this energy released from gravitons that drives gravity in our model.…”

“…Some papers [105] [106] [107] [108] [109] indicate that expansion with a marked increase in radius would be impossible due to the lack of sufficient energy sources to produce the necessary variation in potential energy of the materials gradually moving away from the geocenter. This argument is referenced and adopted by followers of the "slow" version of Expanding Earth [110]. The necessary energy that cannot be accounted for is equal to 31 10 J E ≈ over about 400 Ma.…”

“…However, assuming the physical reality of a central flow of aether as the cause of gravitation and expansion completely overturns any such objections [105]- [110]. Indeed, the energy injected by aether into our planet from the Triassic to the Recent era is:…”
