  • No, he's not. We know gravity and mass are related, and there are ways to model how much gravity an object of a certain mass has, but we do not know what physically causes gravity, how it manifests, or the underlying particles, if any, tie two objects in a gravitational bond.

  • Don't we though? What about dark matter and it's relativity to pushing things apart?,The Higgsfield and Higgs particle?, or teleportation which exists on two islands on the earth via laser. Cloning of an atom( technically) then shooting it to where it needs to go via laser with a receiver.. Although one atom Must be destroyed in the process they share a bond. For every atom there is another that shares a bond with it and no matter how far apart they are they still attract one another. So we know gravitational bonds exist, we know there is gravity and anti gravity and they are very closely related mass or lack of a particle and I totally forgot the rest. This is why I didn't go to Yale. I've completely forgotten my Sources and details. Allwell. Point is, we know a lot, even enough to create artificial gravity in several different ways but none on how to get rid of gravity other than using light materials. What about that cloud jello ultra light and extremely durable stuff? Can't remember what it's called for the life of me right meow but yeah. >_>

    Dark matter actually pulls, it's dark energy that pushes (technically it stretches space, doesn't actually push). The Higgs field gives mass to bosons and not fermions (quarks that make up protons, neutrons). 99 percent of mass in normal matter is still unknown as to what causes it. Anti-gravity is entirely sci-fi

  • Tis my bad homie. I get dyslexic with stored knowledge long unused. I appreciate the correction and yeah that's just like the majority of DNA is "junk" DNA. We may not know what it does or means but it's probably not junk other than perhaps a few bits of DNA we haven't used in thousands of years and the same probably applies to gravity minus the thousands of years thing since gravity is always in use in one way or another

  • No. Explain to me how Gravity is created and what causes it.

  • There is no explanation, I was talking about the "not necessarily" part. Even if we have no explanation as to what exactly gravity is, we know for a fact that a mass that large would produce an incredibly large gravitational force. I suppose I was being a little aggressive, I just think it's obvious that it has gravity. Sorry.

  • Gravitation pull is proportional to a bodys mass. Lighter objects will emit a gravitational pull to heavier objects but albeit a very weak on. Larger object exhibit a stronger gravitation pull on smaller objects. If the traveller weighed 180k times more than earth then the earth would be orbiting that -blam!-er.

  • This does not explain how it is created. You have explained a gravitational relationship between two objects. There is no definitive science that explains where gravity comes from or proving it will be generated in certain situations. For example we as humans have way more mass than many objects. We don't have a gravitational pull on them. That is why it is a theory and not a universal truth.

  • It doesn't matter how it's created, we know it's created.

  • Ok but we know when it occurs. It occurs between two bodies and if one body is much larger (in mass) it causes the other body to be pulled towards it and in some cases creates an orbit. We dont need to know how its created we just need to know when its created to understand if something will experience a gravitational pull,

  • We don't know that to always be true so we mustn't make that assumption.

  • The Law of Gravitation and Theory of Relativity pretty much confirms this assumption, so yeah buddy.

  • [quote]We don't know that to always be true so we mustn't make that assumption.[/quote] Unless you give me any example that larger mass DOESN'T mean a larger gravitational pull, then don't make such a bold assertion. Every large celestial body in the observable universe exerts this idea. The larger the planet the larger the gravitational pull. Black holes which have an enormous amount of mass and density even effects the gravitational pull against light, so tell me again how we are wrong again?
