https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRr1kaXKBsU try to follow along with this. Also, forces have force particles, there appears to be no such thing for gravity though I think scientists are still working on this problem to this day. Mass seems to be derived from the higgs field but I am not knowledgeable enough to answer how that relates to gravity per se.

If that were true, the gravity wave detector wouldn’t work.

Are you sure about that? My understanding is that gravitational waves are predicted by general relativity, not inconsistent with it.

In any case, “all models are wrong, but some are useful”. Gravity as curvature is a pretty damn useful model.

I’m in geoscience. Physicists are nerds. Touch grass, ya dweebs. We wear hiking clothes on campus and we aren’t going on fieldwork until July. It’s called dedication.

Im a physicist and I took your advice and typed sudo touch grass and it said I don’t have grass on my pc, what do I do?

I hear there is a really cool built-in black hole simulator if you input: sudo rm -rf /

sudo touch grass would actually make an empty file called ‘grass’ in the current directory, assuming you have root privileges

No silly, gravity is caused by the fundamental fear of loneliness so pervasive and unrelenting in the universe that it causes the formation of stars and planets.

This is no joke, pretty much most mystical religion’s cosmology.

Like Kabbalah, Advaita Vedanta, Sufism etc.

Not the gravity part, but basically that the first thought, after being came into existence, was longing for another, to be united.

The first existence is in itself a separation from chaos, so its nature is “will”, wanting to fill a void.
