Pre-Registered Statistical Evaluation of Gradient-Determined Orb Behavior Under the SP3 Framework

The Space-Phase (SP3) framework proposes that gravity and inertial behavior arise fromgradients in a conditionable substrate referred to as space-phase. If macroscopic coherencedomains manifest as orb-like aerial phenomena, their motion should reflect gradientdetermined behaviors. This study presents a pre-registered statistical protocol restricted toorb cases identified prospectively or in historical review. The primary hypothesis statesthat at least 80% of included orb cases will satisfy at least one of three predicted behaviors:(1) a single orb, or group of orbs - hovering/moving within a confined space (≥5 seconds),(2) a group of at least two orbs moving in coordinated formation, and (3) a sustaineddirection of movement by at least one orb. Strict inclusion criteria are applied. A statisticalpower analysis defines required sample size. The framework enables falsifiable testing ofSP3’s gradient-based motion prediction
