The Omnidirectional Spherical Nested Spiral Universe Model: Origin of Invariant Light Speed, Classical Interpretation of Quantum Phenomena, and Unification of the Four Fundamental Forces Researcher:Hu JiaBo assistant:AI DeepSeek AI DouBao Abstract Based on the standard model of modern physics in which "the speed of light is constant and the observer is stationary," this paper proposes a brand-new cosmological picture — by swapping the reference frames of light speed and the observer, we obtain an "Omnidirectional Spherical Nested Spiral Universe Model" that is fully equivalent to existing physics, preserves all physical formulas unchanged, yet explains phenomena more simply and self-consistently. The model assumes that light is stationary in the background field, while the material system in which the observer resides undergoes omnidirectional spherical nested spiral motion at the speed of light. Starting from observed facts such as the Earth's rotation, its revolution around the Sun, the Solar System's orbit around the Milky Way, and the Milky Way's motion around higher-level structures, the model deduces a cosmic architecture of 10 nested layers plus one dimension of time, explaining that the speed of light c ≈ 300,000 km/s is precisely the absolute velocity at which the outermost rotating carousel drags us along. This paper further distinguishes between two fundamental types of existence in the universe — physical particle matter and non-physical particle matter (coupled imprints such as light, electromagnetic waves, and cosmic rays) — clarifying that the two are substances of different properties occupying the same space; non-physical imprints remain stationary in the background field once produced, while physical matter collides with them at the speed of light, producing electromagnetic effects. Regarding the ultimate source of the universe's rotational power, this paper draws on the idea of prime number symmetry from the Riemann Hypothesis, proposing that the symmetric portion of the universe's energy that could be "evenly divided" has long dissipated, leaving behind prime-number-like energy that cannot be divided and can only sustain its existence by forming stable rotating circles. The model provides unified explanations for the constancy of the speed of light, wave-particle duality, and the four fundamental forces, and proposes several falsifiable experimental predictions.

Introduction Since the Michelson-Morley experiment in 1887, the "principle of the invariant speed of light" has become an axiomatic cornerstone of modern physics. However, mainstream physics has never been able to provide a fundamental explanation for the question of "why the speed of light is constant in all inertial frames." Meanwhile, the fundamental contradictions between general relativity and quantum mechanics in their descriptions of spacetime, the nature of dark matter and dark energy, and the mystery of extra dimensions predicted by string theory constitute the deepest crises in contemporary physics. This paper proposes a brand-new cosmological picture: It is not light that is moving, but we—as observers composed of atoms—are moving at the speed of light relative to an absolutely stationary background field in an omnidirectional spherical nested spiral motion. The "speed of light" we perceive is essentially the rate of our own motion. There exist two fundamental types of matter in the universe: physical particle matter composed of atoms, and non-physical particle matter (stationary imprints such as light, electromagnetic waves, and cosmic rays) produced by the interaction and coupling between physical particle matter and the vacuum background energy sea. The ultimate driving force behind the universe's rotation may originate from the inevitable formation of stable rotating structures by the remaining "prime-number energy" after symmetry breaking, in order to sustain its own existence. 2. Why Are We in Omnidirectional Spherical Spiral Motion? 2.1 Observed Facts: Ten Nested Layers of Cosmic Rotation Our proposal of "omnidirectional spherical nested spiral motion" is not an arbitrary imagination, but is based on confirmed observational facts from modern astronomy: 1. The Earth's rotation: We race eastward with the Earth's rotation at hundreds of meters per second. 2. The Earth's revolution around the Sun: The Earth orbits the Sun at approximately 30 km/s. 3. The Solar System's orbit around the Galactic Center: The Sun carries the entire Solar System in its orbit around the central black hole of the Milky Way at approximately 220 km/s. 4. The Milky Way's motion around the center of mass of the Local Group: The Milky Way moves at even higher speeds around the center of mass of the Local Group. 5. The Local Group's motion around the Virgo Supercluster. 6. The Virgo Supercluster's motion around even larger structures. 7-9. Higher-level nested rotations, extending to the outermost structure of the observable universe. These rotations are nested layer upon layer, each level enveloping and driving all the lower levels within it. Like Russian nesting dolls, they ultimately superimpose into our sole, extraordinarily complex true trajectory through the universe. Because the rotation axis and plane of each level are different, when countless circular motions of different directions and radii are superimposed, the final trajectory is no longer confined to a single plane, but forms an omnidirectional spherical spiral motion that has components in all directions and continuously expands outward. 2.2 Why Is the Speed the Speed of Light, c? The speed of light c ≈ 300,000 km/s that we measure is precisely the absolute velocity of our motion relative to the outermost structure of the universe, resulting from the superposition of these 10 nested layers of rotation. The outermost rotating carousel drags all inner layers at the speed of light, so the "speed of light" we measure is not the speed of light itself, but the speed at which we ourselves are being dragged. Physicists have discovered that string theory may require an 11-dimensional curled-up space; in our model, these 11 dimensions correspond exactly to 10 nested layers of space plus one dimension of time. The dimensions are not curled up, but are unfolded in the starry sky above our heads. 3. Two Fundamental Types of Matter: Physical Particle Matter and Non-Physical Particle Matter 3.1 The Production of Non-Physical Particle Matter In our model, there exist two fundamental forms of matter in the universe. They share the same space, but have completely different properties: 1. Physical Particle Matter: Composed of particles with rest mass, such as atoms and molecules. It is dragged by the outermost nested rotating carousel at the speed of light, undergoing omnidirectional spherical spiral motion. 2. Non-Physical Particle Matter: Includes light, electromagnetic waves, cosmic rays, gravitational waves, etc. These are stationary energy imprints "engraved" in space when physical particle matter interacts and couples with the vacuum background energy sea. These imprints have no rest mass, do not follow the motion of physical matter, and once produced, remain forever at their initial position of formation in the background field. 3.2 Interaction Between the Two: The Essence of Electromagnetic Effects When physical particle matter (such as our eyes, detectors) moves in a spiral at the speed of light and collides with these stationary non-physical particle matter imprints, it triggers what we perceive as electromagnetic effects — we see light, detect electromagnetic waves, measure cosmic rays. Therefore, light is not a flying bullet, but a stationary bullet hole; we are not receiving light, but colliding with light. Electromagnetic interaction is, in essence, the coupling collision between high-speed moving physical particle matter and stationary non-physical imprints. 4. The Source of the Universe's Rotational Power: The Symmetry Dilemma of Prime-Number Energy 4.1 Symmetry Breaking of Cosmic Energy At the birth of the universe, all energy was in a state of perfect symmetry. The energy that could be "evenly divided" — that is, the portion that could perfectly couple with the symmetric ground state of the universe's background field — dissipated rapidly long ago, returning to the uniform ground state of the background field. But there exists a portion of energy that cannot be "evenly divided" — like prime numbers, it cannot be decomposed into symmetric factors. This "prime-number energy" cannot dissipate directly, because energy is conserved; nor can it remain stationary, because once stationary it would be swallowed by the background field. 4.2 Rotation: The Only Way Out for Prime-Number Energy To maintain its own stable existence, this remaining "prime-number energy" can do only one thing: form a stable circle, sustaining itself through eternal rotation. A closed circle is the only energy structure that can make itself symmetric. In rotation, energy circulates cyclically along the closed loop, neither leaking nor dissipating, achieving a dynamic equilibrium with the symmetric pressure of the background field. This explains why all stable structures in the universe — from the rotation of quarks within atomic nuclei, to the orbital motion of electrons around the nucleus, to the Earth's revolution around the Sun, to the Milky Way's rotation around galaxy clusters — are circular motions, are spherical nestings. This may also explain the deep connection between the distribution of
