He was the first to give a description of energy. So he could have used any number he wanted

Prhaps Newton's seond law of motion would give one a hint what Einstein was developing in his simplest equation.

Newton's second law would have different results in different mediums.
Depending on the resistance it provides.

but it i THE BASIS for F=m or F=mc^2, Unerstning hy is important.

Aah yes point taken. Thank you.

Seems that Newton's second law is only valid up until light speed. I wonder if the structure of space becomes more rigid when exposed to a certain amount of force?

That's true but the form of the equation is not bound by the boundary. Its a dimensional equivalent.

Einstein was solving one equation in terms of the units of another .
We do the same with gravity/electromagnetism/Magnetism / and atomic binding force ...That's where Einstein first thought of a grand unified theory and Hawking made his later life's work a "Theory of Everything"

Aah yes I see. I find Hawkins work hard to read. Does he consider space to be a structure?

Well last time I tried to read one of his books was 20 years ago. Maybe it will make more sense to me now.

Well all his works has intellectual property so it can't be discussed without his permission.
He uses the spacetime grid system to talk about the time travel concept but never describes the structure of space.
At least not from the public lectures I read so far.
Did anyone find something different? Or is the structure of space still waiting for the first person to describe it?

Ok Quantum mechanics does state that space is a structure.
"Loop quantum gravity is based first of all on the idea to take seriously the insight of general relativity that spacetime is a dynamical field and therefore is a quantum object. The second idea is that the quantum discreteness that determines the particle-like behavior of other field theories (for instance, the photons of the electromagnetic field) affects also the structure of space. "
But does anyone know if the structure has been attempted to be described?

The early Universe's gravity was much stronger than any black hole. So the theory of what goes on inside a black hole should be closer to the laws of the early Universe.

Aha found it! It's pretty rough but it's a start.

Now how to find out if it's something that is constantly being created, or a separate substance than the rest of the Universe and always been present.

There is no reason to say this, as what gravity is now, is not understood.

Could it be part of the composition of an atom?

This shows an inaccurate understanding of the theory.

Black Holes are collapsed due to gravitational compression, but the early Universe was collapsed due to space-time compression. The two conditions are quite different.

If gravity is caused by physical part of an atom, than any atom less mass should not display the effects of gravity unless it's near an atom.

Ok I'll read on the compression of the structure of space.
That should help a lot thank you.

A black hole could have more gravity because it would capture that material while releasing the rest of the mass.

Or black holes do not exist http://www.iflscience.com/physics/physicist-claims-have-proven-mathematically-black-holes-do-not-exist

Black holes may not be real, they are theory at best at the moment. http://www.iflscience.com/physics/physicist-claims-have-proven-mathematically-black-holes-do-not-exist
