Some regard it as an alternative scientific [[paradigm]], and hope aetherometry may have some new and valid content which may be integrated into the body of science in the future. This, however, involves a misunderstanding of the [[Thomas Samuel Kuhn|Kuhnian]] notion of a paradigm. Science is defined in terms of a shared paradigm; whatever lies outside that paradigm (which is defined in large part as a shared set of techniques, theories, and [[exemplar]]s) is by definition not science (if it claims to be scientific, then it is pseudo-science). In other words, the very notion of an alternative scientific paradigm is self-contradictory. |

In the philosophy of science, the term protoscience is used to describe a new area of scientific endeavor in the process of becoming established. While protoscience is often speculative, it is to be distinguished from pseudoscience by its adherence to the scientific method and standard practices of good science, most notably a willingness to be disproven by new evidence (if and when it appears), or supplanted by a more-predictive theory.
Fits Aetherometry perfectly, no? But we digress... Back to our history. The next event - in light of the fact that the proposal to change the name of the category "Pseudophysics" to "Non-mainstream science" fell on deaf ears - was the actual creation, by one of the "supporters" of Aetherometry, of a new category named "Non-mainstream science". Note how the next sequence reveals that "Pseudophysics", in spite of its pretences, was never really intended to "neutrally" encompass non-mainstream scientific endeavors:

"Aetherometry" is a term coined by biophysicist and molecular biologist Paulo Correa and Alexandra Correa to denote the experimental and analytical system they claim to have developed, the goal of which is asserted to be the precise experimental and theoretical study of "massfree energy" (or, as they also put it, the study of the "metrics of the massfree aether"). (Note that "massfree energy" is not a term used by mainstream physicists.) Unlike those previous theories of the aether which were ruled out by the null result of the Michelson-Morley experiment, aetherometry proponents claim that their concept of massfree energy provides a theory of the aether based upon that null result.
Aetherometry claims to provide a different foundation for much of accepted physics, chemistry, and biophysics, and to go beyond them by explaining a number of what its supporters claim are hitherto unexplained anomalies. Among the subjects it addresses are blackbody radiation, microwave cosmic background radiation, Kirlian photography, Tesla coil resonance, electroscopic discharge, anomalous cathode reaction forces, autoelectronic emission, the thermal effects of orgone accumulators, the 1941 Reich-Einstein experiment, and the Orgone motor. It also claims to explain the failures of a number of controversial theories in minor fields of scientific investigation, such as orgonomy, LeSage-type theory of gravity, and models for cold fusion. The main philosophical influences claimed by aetherometry are Friedrich Nietzsche, Camillo Berneri, and Gilles Deleuze while its main scientific influences are claimed to be Nikola Tesla, Louis de Broglie, Wilhelm Reich, Harold Aspden, and René Thom.
In particular, aetherometry appears to be, in part, a continuation of Reich's investigations into orgone energy. Its proponents claim to have experimentally confirmed most of Reich's claimed experimental results, and have proposed theoretical explanations for them [1]. In aetherometry, Reich's Orgone and DOR energies are regarded as forming a single spectrum of "ambipolar massfree electric radiation". [2]. In spite of aetherometry's connections to Reich's work, some aetherometrists are highly critical of Reich's followers [3].
Eugene Mallove, founder of Infinite Energy magazine, was a public supporter of aetherometry, and was one of the founding members of the International Society of Friends of Aetherometry.
Papers, books and DVDs in Aetherometry have been published by Akronos Publishing (a Canadian publishing house in which Paulo Correa and Alexandra Correa are partners) and in the non-mainstream peer-reviewed science magazine Infinite Energy, but not in peer-reviewed mainstream scientific publications. None of the papers have been cited in peer-reviewed mainstream scientific publications.
According to aetherometry's supporters, work in aetherometry, including plasma physics, biophysics and technology-tests, has been independently reviewed by a number of scientists and medical doctors. The Correas' website provides a set of references to aetherometry research (linked below), which includes the names of a number of their supporters and endorsers.
