In the preceding has been shown that by reestablishing the aether as the physical substrate of the universe, all observed physical phenomena can be accounted for on the basis of fluid mechanics in this substance. To summarize the findings:

The aether must be an anisotropic fluid consisting of oblong particles, called gyrons. The vacuum represents a distri-bution of gyrons in a phase-space with maximum entropy, characterized by random distribution of gyron orientation and their velocities. The Heisenberg uncertainty is the measure of the fluctua-tion in the ten-dimensional aether phase space, and the accompanying uncertainty of position and momentum of the observed dynamic structures, corresponds to the Brownian motion in the aether.

The electromagnetic radiation, including light, consists of a non-random distribu-tion of gyrons in the form of an undulating spiral.

The electron, which is considered to be the basic building entity of observed materials, is a spherical vortex with two possible circulations, which give rise to the constancy of two charges, and two spin orientations. This vortex also reorients the gyrons in its circulation, and in this process increases their speed to superluminal values, which can account for gravitation.

The outward flow of aether in the electron vortex that generates the gravitational field, and
neutrinos emanating from nuclear structures, are consequences of the longitudinally oriented gyron flows.

The atomic nuclear structures are dynamic assemblies of electron vortexes. Such structures, requiring non-linear mathema-tics for description, are presently very hard to deal with, and I have not yet derived any such descriptions. This does not represent a fatal flaw of this theory, it is merely incomplete. Even fluid mechanics of isotropic fluids is only marginally developed, and the million dollar prize for the general solution of the Navier-Stokes equation has not been claimed yet. The anisotropic aether presents a great challenge to mathemati-cians and physicists.

As depicted below, the anisotropic nature of the aether can also possibly account for the genesis of galaxies.
