Pire, I posted references in one of my earlier posts.


Now, I want to talk littlebit regarding your "it doesn't justify the weird claims of having proven Newton, Einstein and Archimedes wrong within the span of two years in Nepal. Who next?"


I am not saying Newton, Einstien, or  Archemidies are wrong. But what I think is the theories might be incomplete, and some bright people in future may add some thing or may modify them. I do not have sound knowledge in physics, but if you read Neils Bohr Biography, you can see that how  Boldly he said that Newtonian Mechanics was incomplete and it can not deal with every thing.(He was just a grad student at that time in Denmark). When he was proposing the theory of atom, all the physicists around the world (including the Giant of the time) were saying " if this theory comes to be true , we will leave the physics for ever".


Finally, Bohr's theory was accepted. I do not know how many left the physics though. Now a days most of the thing- from tube light to computer work based on this theory. You can not say that Newton is perfect for everything or Einstien or Archemidies is perfect. We just say on the basis of knowledge till the human being have these are the accepted theories. They may be incomplete to explain certain things, and future generation will work on that. There is no dead end. There are always some people who can think out of the boundry that has been set in the text books. Probaly you  and me think within certain boundary, but smart people always are trying to think out of the boundary. A person in decades comes with a breakthrough that revolutionizes the world.
