Question: what the he11 does "information space" have to do with the orbits of planets around the sun (and, subsequently, around the earth, assuming the sun orbits the earth)?

Does "information space" have any relationship to what we actually see whizzing around out there, or is it a completely artificial construct? And what force makes the planets take the orbits they take? It better pretty closely resemble gravity, or your model will be falsified in no time.

We're still not getting much closer to an actual model that describes the configuration of the solar system, Bill, let alone the configuration of the rest of the universe.

Also, if your definition of "information" is anything like the normal definition of the term, the amount of "information" contained in a region of space is proportional to the area of a sphere bounding that space, not the volume of the space. If I'm reading your model at all correctly (which frankly would be surprising), you seem to be saying information is proportional to the volume.
