ABSTRACT: When a theory, as the general relativity, linked to special relativity,
is foundation of a scientific paradigm, through normal science and academy,
scientifics, professionals, professors, students and journals of that
scientific community, the paradigm, it self-sustains and reproduces. Thus, the research is obligated
and limited to apply the model existent of the paradigm to formulate problems
and solve them, without searching new discoveries. This self-protection of the
paradigm causes it to end its cycle of life, only after a long time, until that
arise unresolved anomalies, some presents since origin, that they finally cause
its change by other new paradigm. In this work, we study the most important
anomalies that are part of the foundations of general relativity with the goal
of promoting the call period of transition that is previous to scientific
revolution. We use critical
analysis method for rereading the general relativity, from the
perspective of the history of science and philosophy of science. We find, the
structural and complex anomaly of general relativity based on metaphysical
spacetime that produces the metaphysics replaces physics. Also, two internal
anomalies their direct consequences. These are: matter curves metaphysical
spacetime, and metaphysical spacetime determines the geodesic motion of
physical matter. We conclude that general relativity has no valid physical
concept of spacetime, therefore of gravity. For these reasons, a new paradigm
is needed.
