		In 1989, Mordehai Milgrom, a physicist at the Weizmann Institute in Israel, proposed a modification of Newton's second law of motion.
		In search for observations that would validate his theory, Milgrom noticed that a special class of objects, the low surface brightness galaxies (LSB) are of particular interest: the radius of a LSB is large compared to its mass, and thus almost all stars are within the flat part of the rotation curve.
		Milgrom thus could make the prediction that LSBs would have a rotation curve essentially flat, and with a relation between the flat velocity and the mass of the LSB identical to that of brighter galaxies.

	Modified Newtonian dynamics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In 1983, Mordehai Milgrom, a physicist at the Weizmann Institute in Israel, published two papers on the Astrophysical Journal to propose a modification of Newton's second law of motion.
		As Milgrom proved in his original paper, the form of µ does not change most of the consequences of the theory, such as the flattening of the rotational curve.
		Since Milgrom's theory first appeared in 1983, the most accurate data has come from observations of distant galaxies and neighbors of the Milky Way.

	Article 1
		The idea, called MOND (for Modified Newtonian Dynamics), was proposed back in 1983 by physicist Mordehai Milgrom, now at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel.
		Milgrom had seen the data like everyone else, but instead of thinking about new kinds of matter, he decided to question the physical laws that describe how ordinary matter behaves.
		The laws in question are the law of gravity and Newton's second law, f = ma, which simply tells us that the amount of force you need to accelerate a mass increases linearly as you increase the mass or its acceleration.

	The Science of Science - Nicholas Astete
		For instance, Milgrom points outs that two scientists who had developed an elegant explanation to counter MOND had based their work on "crude approximations that disagree with observed dark matter halos and with detailed numerical simulations of dark matter behavior" (Milgrom 52)—and as such, their graceful yet flawed counter-theory could not sustain itself.
		Milgrom demonstrates how Mach's principle might arise from MOND's framework due to a particle's interactions with the vacuum of space (Milgrom 52).
		Milgrom even opposes any sort of complacent reliance on his own theory, highlighting MOND's possible shortcomings (50) and concluding that "although people are right to be skeptical about MOND, until definite evidence arrives for dark matter or for one of its alternatives, we should keep our minds open" (52).

		It is an alteration to Newton's law of gravity, made to fit the observations of galactic movement and to do away with the dark matter problem.
		It was first proposed by Mordehai Milgrom in 1983.
		The fact that it agrees with observations doesn't necessarily mean it is grounded in reality; rather, that it predicts what it was designed to predict and nothing more..

	Comments to: The Myth Of Dark Matter - Can Science Change? - Health Supreme
		Don't know much about the other dark matter theory, but a couple of years ago I used the research of Mordehai Milgrom to find the math behind the dark matter question.
		The math for this is part of my website and most of what is there would apply even if the reader were not a believer in an ether.
		However, mainstream physicists have not arrived at such a logical conclusion yet. Milgrom theorizes that dark matter does not exist and that its apparent existence is a consequence of Newton's second law changing at certain distances from galactic centers.

		This article is by one of those so-called "mavericks" of science, named Mordehai Milgrom.
		Anyway, this Milgrom fellow is proposing that Newton is even wronger than Einstein thought.
		But oddly enough, Milgrom has the respect of the scientific community, even when they don't agree with him.

		In the absence of a conventional explanation, physicists have produced speculative alternatives.
		Mordehai Milgrom of the Weizmann Institute of Science near Tel Aviv in Israel, for example, has developed a modified version of classical gravity in which the strength of the gravitational field decreases more slowly than newtonian theory suggests.
		Milgrom produced his theory to account for discrepancies in the motion of galaxies, an effect normally attributed to the presence of dark matter, but physicists have pointed out that it could also account for the Pioneer anomaly.

		The first approach was to build a very basic working model of astrophysical masses and their interactions.
		The Java programmer initially made two versions of the simple program: one using standard gravitational equations, and the other with Modified Newtonian Dynamics, an alternate gravitational theory to dark matter proposed by Mordehai Milgrom, although both were devoid of dark matter itself and of any realistic parameters, containing no more than 20 masses at once.
		He then experimented with the graphical rendering of these models, as the masses had a habit of getting too close to one another and zooming off the visible screen.

	Modified Newtonian Dynamics and the physics aesthetic
		I suppose it's due to the recent SciAm cover story on MOND by Milgrom himself.
		It's also quite alarming that this page is the #1 hit on a Google search for "modified newtonian dynamics." So even though I'm a linguistics student now, I'm compelled to put this up.
		Mordehai Milgrom proposed the idea of modified dynamics as a solution to the hidden matter problem- all the way back in 1983.

		In his paper, Milgrom arranged the typical acceleration of various physical process in a two-dimensional diagram (see figure 3).
		The most successful relativistic version of MOND, which was proposed in 2004, is known as "TeVeS" for Tensor-Vector-Scalar and was proposed by fl hole physicist and Milgrom associate Bekenstein.
		It is currently receiving scholarly review in the field.

		Nikola Tesla challenged Albert Einstein's theory of relativity, announcing he was working on a Dynamic theory of gravity (which began between 1892 and 1894) and argued that a "field of force" was a better concept and focused on mediums with electromagnetic energy that fills all of space.
