Solved anomalies prove a shear-thickening vacuum

By reinterpreting the Lorentz factor as the rheogram of the physical vacuum and using it in Stokes's law to measure the viscous force exerted by the vacuum, Mercury's perihelion precession and the Pioneer anomaly are directly and exactly solved, demonstrating that the physical vacuum is a shear-thickening fluid. The modified Stokes's equation also correctly indicates that planetary orbits are stable over trillions of years. Furthermore, relativistic kinetic energy is revealed as the necessary energy to oppose a shear-thickening vacuum. This unexpected feature of physical vacuum implies interesting consequences for various fields of modern physics.
