C181Gravity and spacetime
What selects three independently measurable spatial directions, and what additional structure makes those directions into a world containing neighborhoods, distances and matter? This article compares the source-based construction with General relativity, identifies their strongest point of contact, and works through a concrete example that separates a valid mathematical result from the further physical relation needed to explain observations.

C446New research questions
A spatial distance can be defined from a round-trip signal and one physical clock. This makes radar ranging a useful benchmark for SMM/DTT’s temporal account of geometry. A worked example shows exactly what the clock readings determine and which assumptions about signals, receivers and causal structure remain necessary.
