The laboratory vacuum and the Eternal Consonance
RSI holds that a vacuum chamber removes air but not the Eternal Consonance, so its refractive density and gravity remain unchanged inside.
A practical question arises for experiments. If measurements are made inside a vacuum chamber, does removing the air change the local density of the Eternal Consonance (EC)?
RSI answers by separating a chemical vacuum from the fundamental vacuum. A laboratory pump removes air molecules, which are aggregates of topological knots. It cannot remove the EC, the continuous substrate in which the chamber itself exists. The density of the EC is also governed by large pressure shadows. A chamber on Earth's surface remains at the bottom of the planet's gravitational density gradient, so the EC inside has the same Refractive Density as the EC outside.
A vacuum also does not create weightlessness. Removing air eliminates drag, but objects inside still feel the full 9.8 m/s² acceleration of the fluid gradient. True weightlessness, as in orbital free fall, occurs only when an object's velocity matches the local acceleration of the fluid frame.
