Matter and Mass
Matter is probably an electromagnetic phenomena as science suspects. It does manifest itself in forms, that our sensory levels can detect which seem as hard core physical in nature; as solid, liquid, and gaseous. It also appears that all matter, at least, the materials consisting of atoms interacts with what we call gravitation phenomena. We know that atomic matter can have particle and wave characteristics. When matter is broken down to its micro smallest components; they cannot be measured or observed singularly because their actions will be influenced by just looking at them due to the pressure, when light photons impact them. To observe, look at, requires light to reflect off that something back to us to detect with our eyes or instruments. All matter has mass. We have at rest mass and directional mass. At rest mass is the resistance to pressure brought to bear upon a body of matter when it is more or less idle in a local frame of reference. When we accelerate matter in a single direction it's resistance to motion, or change of state in this singular direction is increased. What that means: is it is harder to stop the hammer swinging towards a nail, that it is to push it from the side, as it is in motion. This directional mass is also noticed, of particles in a partial vacuum. There is a resistance to motion at extremely high velocities of particles moving in a vacuum Space. This is detected by how much work must be required to pressure and accelerate these particles to these extreme rates. The increase in directional mass through Space is calculated using the Lorentz formula for this purpose.
Force and Pressure
I broke force into two parts... to wit... A named Force Cause, and the Action of the Force. The wind blowing into a sail to propel a sailboat often would be called the Force of the Wind. When, it is actually matter in motion exerting pressure against the sail consisting of other matter. The matter in motion, is air which is atoms or nitrogen, oxygen and etc. There is matter in motion, or in change of state, and we have given many a name for a force. In this case the Force Name is wind... and matter in Force Actions, impacting the sail, are pressure.
There are a multitude of classical and quantum mechanical recognized Force Causes, but, they are all only one Force Action, due to pressure being brought to bear. There is other named phenomena, possibly force causes, in nature that exhibit unexplained actions. Such as gravitation. It has been over 300 years since Newton, and we still don't have a clue...!
I have gone out on a limb, and have postulated that all actions on any Forces are actions of pressure.
I further have shown the greater degree of difficulty, for explanations like attraction; for the other possibilities that exist, trying to explain remaining unknowns. What I like about, all force actions being pressure... it allows me to get along with the business at hand.
Energy
Sorting Energy as a Fantasy herein was a good thing for me. This way I could relate the predominate basic definition. Energy being just a measurement of ability to do work, and measured after it was done. I portrayed energy not as a thing, since it is a measure of ability to do what we call work. I also gave an in depth general description of what and how matter gets an increase in ability to do work. The increased ability in a body of matter, to do work, is an increase in atomic activity. This increase in atomic activity is brought on by the action of pressure force, from some named force cause.
Light
It is known that all light photons exert pressure upon impact, whether it is thought of as wave or particle theory. This means to me that light in directional motion has mass, which is resistance to change of state. In other words it takes some amount of resistance or work to stop an incoming photon of light. I put forth the idea that there might be idle photons essentially of no mass especially within the inner Space volume within atoms. I like this better than saying photons are created from Space as virtual photons. The photon is called a quanta... and this, for me, allows the possibility there might be corpuscles of light smaller than our photon size, but we cannot measure them, or detect them. Light is also a electromagnetic phenomena, but I keep it separate from matter... mostly just due to its form, and attribute differences from matter. When light is mentioned, it is most often thought of as visible light our eyes detect. Let us not forget, however, it is much more... X-ray, infrared heat, ultraviolet, gamma rays, cosmic rays, radio waves and etc. Light is pervasive throughout Space__ and it may even be the ether of Space.
Acceleration
Remember Acceleration has an exact definition in Mathematics! It describes the motion of body as it is increasing in speed, and or decreasing in speed while continuing in a straight line. Important to remember is... if a body is traveling in other than a straight line, a curve, it is always accelerating no matter what its rate of speed. This is due to the fact that it is always changing its straight line motion forward, instantly to new straight line directions requiring continued force actions to do so. (Deceleration is minus acceleration.) All acceleration is due to a differential of pressure. If the differential of pressure stops, the acceleration will stop. However there can be pressure without acceleration. This condition is then pressure in a null condition. Such as a clamp holding a block of wood.
Change of State, Motion
I have no doubt that all matter in the Universe is in motion. And, since gravitation is also all pervasive, I feel confident that all motion of matter is in curvature. This also goes with my thinking about atoms and such... and true mathematics writes there is no perfect straight line, or perfect circle, for that matter. Thus__ in the extreme technical sense... all matter is in a constant change of state, and is being accelerated continually.
Orbiting
It is a pretty well accepted notion that if there were not some phenomena, like we call gravitation__ the Earth would not continue in orbit... and would take off into Space. And, all orbiting heavenly bodies in Space would do likewise. I portrayed how the Earth comes around the Sun and then passes it by going out ahead of the Sun. It doesn't seem to matter if the Sun radiates gravitation at the speed of light, the gravitation is still getting there too late as the Earth is moving forward, and would be getting weaker per unit area, meaning a less and less affect on the Earth. And, we haven't shown anything yet to go faster that light. Plus even if the radiation was faster than light speed, it would, in addition, require an increased strength, over distance, to rein in the Earth that would seem it is hell bent for taking off on its own.
Gravitation and Space
My most recent notion that I herein conclude__ is: Gravitation and Space can be considered one and the same!
I took a hard look at gravitation using my own requirements. Something has to be a named as the force cause. And, something has to be the force action. I think almost all forces in nature that we have named; are shown to represent known entities of our natural Universe. Bodies falling, bodies pressed to earth, and bodies coming together have been attributed to gravitation. But what is "it". What is gravitation? Well I asked myself the same two questions of Space. And, the answers were the same... I don't know. But, I wondered!
If inner Space within the confines of an atom moves with the atom, and this inner Space is electromagnetic in some form, maybe when something pressures matter... it is not putting pressure on the atom as a particle, but is indirectly pressuring the inner Space, and this inner Space frame of reference reacts, and all within it. I have toyed with this notion for quite awhile, in the sense of fields interacting with fields. I however, think of fields as only measured values, or conditions... not as entities. Well, I got thinking again about Space moving along with our Solar System, as sort of a Space envelope, or bubble. This could mean that this bubble could be conditioned, warped, distorted or distressed__ and holds this condition as our Solar system travels through Space. This would mean that an orbiting planet has a stable condition that would be actions forcing, pressuring inward all the while it orbits. The conditioning of this Space envelope would be continually held in this condition possibly, by some type of matter radiation, i.e. gravitation... or possibly some form of displacement of Space itself. If a ball was inserted into a blob of gelatin in Space... I think it would displace, expand, or push... the gelatin outward as the natural geometrical ratio of area spread of 1 to 4 with distance doubled. The pressure on the ball's surface would be more per unit area, than the surface of an imaginary sphere; at double the distance out in the gelatin. This would mean galaxies, solar systems, and bodies of matter are all pressed into place. If we move in a Space envelope, frame of references, it also explains why the Michelson Morley experiment didn't show any differences due to the Earth's motion through Space. If the Space of the Universe is large enough, even though it might not have containment walls__ we are so insignificantly small, that our region of Space will seem without change for millions of years. But, I have read where the Universe is expanding at a faster rate than what was thought, and is accelerating...! Thus what force causes a force action of gravitational pressure, is Space. ...I guess we could call it Space-gravity.
Does Space-gravity exert pressure upon us? I mentioned before the reason we do not feel the pressure of gravitation is because it is pressing on every tiny atom of our bodies almost instantly, and we would not notice, and could not detect any single atom compared to another atom... differential of pressure. We do measure pressure as weight quanta so to speak. We do notice that items as ropes, or long rods horizontally suspended... sag, which is probably due to pressure. Thus Space is the Force Cause, and Pressure is the Force Action for what we have been calling gravitation.

Some years ago I was looking at the antennae of an ant. (It is called scape and funiculus officially.) This antenna is quite small to the naked eye. Taking it further I put it under my microscope. Lo and behold it had tiny hair on it. Here was an ant antenna smaller than a human hair, that had yet smaller tiny hair, or what they call sensilla. Human hair varies between 17 to 181 millionths of a meter. This sensilla has a range of about 10 to 15 millionths of a meter. For an average mean sized hair the diameter would be about one million carbon atoms in a row. Doing some crude calculations... I found that a spherical tiny ball with the diameter of an ant hair has a volume that could contain about 14 quadrillion carbon atoms... (14,000,000,000,000,000) That is a bunch of atoms for a ball with a diameter, maybe ten times, or more, smaller than a pencil line!
Obviously atoms are small, but as you know, they have even yet smaller parts as protons, neutrons, and electrons. And, science theorizes and speculates there are yet smaller particles than some of these... called Quarks. Quarks make up some of the atomic particles of nature as a fundamental particle along with lepton, photons, and bosons. These types of particles are called "point-like" since we cannot measure or even estimate their physical size. Note that photons, light quanta, are included in this group.
In the nuclear reactions of fission, and fusion matter is converted to light photon particles that have Directional Mass. (They exhibit resistance to change of state... in the direction they are moving.) I assume that leptons, bosons, and quarks do the same. They have directional mass.
For larger bodies of matter, we say they have At Rest mass. However, we know that nothing is ever exactly at rest. And, if given some thought, we know there is a lot of tiny motions going on within all matter from molecules of atoms, on down to the smallest particles. All this atomic and sub-atomic motion within matter results in a myriad of motions heading every direction at any one instant. At that instant, each and every one of this multitude of tiny particles is headed in a single direction, thus having Directional Mass in that instant. How all these tiny instantaneous movements equate, or act as At Rest mass, I will speculate on later.
The point to be made here: Directional Mass... resistance to change of state, motion only in the direction of motion... may be the only mass! There is a good possibility that there is no such thing as a body of mass having an At Rest mass.
Bodies of matter do exhibit an apparent pseudo At Rest mass. These values of mass are variable depending upon the differing types of matter. These differences can be thought of as due to differing types of atoms, configurations of atoms etc. But, with all the differences; when the tiny atomic and sub-atomic particles are thought of being in motion, and at any instant having properties of only Directional Mass... it seems to make sense.

Already mentioned in these writings I have alluded to the possibility of electrons moving in orbital motions following a toroidal or torus configuration. As such, the electron would not only be following an orbital oval, but it would be rotating perpendicular to the orbit path matching its spin attribute. These motions would match and conform to keeping a balance on either side of a center mean orbit line... that also keeps a balance to allow a resonant frequency. This orbiting would also exhibit a centrifugal effect, as a gyro. A gyro can be moved in three dimensions, as X, Y, & Z. However, a spinning gyro will exhibit a surprising resistance to change of state if it is twisted against it axis of spin. A whole loose volume of spinning gyro mechanisms would probably not give us the conditions matching any At Rest mass, but if the axis' of the gyro were linked, they might. If several gyroscopes have their axis' shafts hooked together end to end hanging down__ and if pressure is applied to one section of this hanging gyro chain__ from any direction, except directly in line with the axis__ it will exhibit resistance. And, taking this further by having chains of gyros at their axis' all linked together in all sorts of direction__ the whole total group would then exhibit resistance to change of state from any direction. This would probably be a good experiment to conduct within one of our orbiting space crafts?! The point here is that we might have created an actual thing in nature that exhibits the properties of At Rest mass of bodies of matter. Thus this would work ok for the adage; "if not observed in nature, it is probably not correct."

Matter is converted to Light in a nuclear reaction. Jillions of photons are radiated, pressured outward... in all directions__ each and all having Directional Mass. If the conversion is 100% complete there would be no matter remaining from the initial ingredients put into the reaction. What happened to the matter? Well things get pretty hot... and thus could have just consumed the matter__ and this may have activated the radiation of light photons in space in and about the reaction. But, I did have this wild thought... What if Quarks and Photons are the same thing? Could, or would a nuclear reaction just break down all the particulates of matter into their lowest form; and set them into single free directional motions scattered and radiating from a source outbound in every direction? Quarks, and photons, both have directional mass. Could it be that the vacant space within the atom is filled with mass-less idle quarks? Could it be that light photons are actually quarks focused, activated, and or radiated acting as light? Could mass-less quarks be the ether of space? Maybe creation of a virtual particle from space is a scenario of activating idle quarks into the conditions, attributes, or properties of matter?!

I also have this nagging notion that if electrons follow a toroidal motion... their actions of their spin can be explained, and any resonant frequency they emit, will be a balanced wave of equal power outbound and inbound from a central mean orbit line, while they orbit. There would be a centrifugal effect. However, if the axes of electrons were interlocked, as could be, as a multitude of gyros: pressure from any direction would offer resistance to change of state. These gyro electron atoms would be like a chain of gyros. A gyro can be moved as a whole unit in all three axes. But, they offer quite a resistance if tilted! Thus if one gyro was hung with a hook below another; and, if pressure was directed to the joint of the two axes... there would be resistance to change of state. Put this into a picture of many chains of gyros... resistance to change in any direction. This would act as what we now call "at rest" mass of a body. I have confidence a physical apparatus such as this could be constructed. Thus the notion may be able to be substantiated, as a natural entity?! It probably could also be done as a computer model.
