Prof. Philip Mannheim, Department of Physics, University of ConnecticutWhy there are dark matter, dark energy, and quantum gravity problems, and what we can do about them We trace the origin of the dark matter, dark energy and quantum gravity problems to the extrapolation of the standard Newton-Einstein wisdom to beyond its solar system origins. We show that this same solar system wisdom can be obtained from the conformal gravity theory, with its extrapolation leading to a resolution of all of the dark matter, dark energy and quantum gravity problems.
