To answer Jerry's question: ALL those constants and many more are derivable
from treating the aether as a hydrodynamic fluidic particulate medium.
The fact that there are different values of gravity acceleration in
different areas of the earth does not detract from this. It simply means
the local mass aggregate is different so the total acceleration is diffferent.
I worked on several satellite projects where we were trying to bounce laser
beams off satellites and in wasn't until we used a very accurate gravity
"map" of the earth were we able to hit the satellite. This was because
there are slight perturbations in the satellites orbit based on the
gravitational fields of the earth which have slight variations in them.
