The visual graph of hc, h, p, and m as we move from our current system to c=1

This is the visual graph that shows the values of hc, h, and p all converging to mass as we move towards c=1. They are spaced out from each other by powers of c. This is a log log graph so power functions look like strait lines. They depend on the definition of the kg for their complete value. This convergence strongly suggests that mass is the fundamental property, with energy, momentum, and even quantum effects being mathematical artifacts within a unified spacetime framework.


m = the mass of a photon at 1Hz. p = mc E = mc^2 (also h.) G = mc^3 / m_P^2
The m_P is the standard Planck mass, not the reduced. 

Constants are needed to scale these properties to our definition of the unit system we have chosen. hc and h are not mysterious they are easy to understand once you realize that at c=1 all the properties of a photon converge to the mass: hc=h=p=m. Natural units always set h to 1 when c=1 but they neglected the fact that the mass is not change by a change in the unit system.

This means that instead of considering a size of spacetime where c³ = 1³, we are looking at a size 26944002417373989539335912 m³ space that is divided up into 1/c³ chunks. The apparent divergence of these properties is not a fundamental property of the universe, but an artifact of how we've chosen to segment spacetime into meters and seconds. When we move towards a system where c=1, this artificial divergence disappears, and we see the fundamental unity.

A meter is not a distance all on its own, it is the distance light travels in 1/c seconds. (1m * 1/c s/m = 1/c s). So we are working in fractions of the natural units right now. Traditional approaches to natural units didn't fully reveal this convergence because they did not consider a unit system where mass is a fundamental starting point. Changing the definition of the meter does not change the mass of a photon. So all the properties converge to the mass because it is our unit system that separates these properties from mass when the length changes.

This perspective suggests a profound shift in how we understand fundamental physics. What are your thoughts on this? What implications do you see for the future of physics?
