A Gravitational-Aether Model Accounting for the Extreme Heat of Venus

Abstract

This study presents a theoretical framework of gravitational-aether dynamics to explain the anomalously high surface temperature of Venus. The model links planetary rotation rate to an internal coupling between gravitational and electromagnetic fields, suggesting that slow rotation reduces outward energy dissipation and increases internal heat retention. A potential-based formulation is developed, combining an inner harmonic potential (valid inside a uniform-density sphere) and an outer hyperbolic potential (applicable beyond the surface). The transition between these regimes defines a differentiable “potential well” that corresponds to the region of maximum gravitational time dilation and energy concentration. By extending this framework thermodynamically, the minimization of gravitational potential is shown to correspond to entropy maximization, connecting planetary rotation, aether dynamics, and heat equilibrium. The results suggest that Venus’s extreme surface temperature may arise naturally from this aether-mediated force unification, offering an alternative interpretation to purely radiative or greenhouse explanations.
