All matter and energy (such as space itself) is expanding at an
accelerating rate, and has been for an unimaginable amount of time.
Infinitely longer time than what we today believe to be the beginning of
existence. "Space" extends out infinitely as well. So
the expansion of the universe will continue forever. This idea is
the basis of my theory. I'll follow Aukum's Razaar, "All things being
equal, the simplest explanation is most likely the right one. It
is more likely gravity is just caused by an everyday FORCE, rather than
a magical "energy" nicknamed gravity. I'm not a physicist, nor can I spell
the word, so the theory may have many small flows, and big Physics principles
might be omitted.
One day in Astronomy class, the teacher said that the difference
between gravity and a force in indiscernible. And also, scientist
have been searching for gravity waves for years and years with all Sorts
of high tech equipment, not to find a single trace of the existence of
a "gravity" wave. With these two facts, I propose that there is no
"gravity", the illusion of gravity is just the force of the Earth expanding.
We ourselves are also expanding, so therefore we impart a little bit of
"gravity" force onto the Earth. Force can be detected though from
the expanding universe, since it is not a relative measurement.
A couple examples of why I think this works are as follows: when somebody
jumps into the air, for a second there is an impulse directed into the
air on the human. This subject in actuality continues to jump up
with a constant velocity because there is no external force exerted on
him. The Earth though is expanding at an accelerating rate and just
catches up with the subject, giving the illusion of him jumping and being
"pulled back to Earth, when really the Earth is just catching up to him.
The second example: A man steps off of an airplane. He feels no forces
acting on him at all - no "gravity force". The illusion that he is
"falling to the Earth under the force of gravity is attained because the
Earth is just catching up to him at an accelerating rate. For this
man to be accelerating to the Earth he would have to feel some kind of
force, but he doesn't, because it doesn't exist.
A third example of why "gravity" works when the subject is found millions
of miles from a planet containing "gravity". I'll use an example
where the man is equidistant between two planets of equal mass. (Picture
below) First I'll repeat, while he is out in space, no Force is felt or
is present. The reason he is not moving towards either planet is
because the "space" between the two planets is also equally expanding at
an accelerating rate. Suppose the man moves 20 miles closer to Planet
A. You might ask (well, he shouldn't move because the space between
the planet and him is also expanding?) not completely true. The explanation
to this includes an explanation of the inverse squared law as well.
While the space between Planet "A" and the man is expanding, as well the
space between the man and planet "B" is also. And actually the space
between B and the man is growing at a faster rate because the "space" between
the man and Planet B is already larger than between the man and Planet
A. So relative to the distance between man and B, the space between
man and A is getting smaller, at an exponential rate rate. Hence
the inverse square law. The further something is from a source of
matter the less acceleration it experiences. The square, because
the acceleration is relative [depending on the distance between it and
the source of matter. Space is expanding it is actually expanding
slower than matter is. This is because in the situation of matter,
both matter and energy are involved in the expansion. In the vacuum
of space, only the energy of space expands in turn the gap between the
planet and the man becomes increasingly smaller. The actual ration
of [space energy/(matter + space energy)] expansion is relatively close
to 1. E = mc^2, mass is so minute a number compared to the energy
it contains. But when the relative distance between two masses becomes
very small and they accelerate towards each other and such a high rate.
The expansion of matter will overrun the expansion of space and the two
masses will collide. So at first the gap shortens slowly, but accelerates
and the gap gets smaller exponentially, until the subject meets the planet,
and is said to have been pulled into it. Which leads to another theory
about the Big Bang.
Well, after an unimaginable length of time the matter in the universe
will expand and over run the "space energy" until all the matter and energy
are touching each other in close quarters. From the point of God,
infinitely far away, the matter will look like a very small area.
Well, the matter keeps expanding at an accelerating rate, but keeps on
being hindered by Running into other matter and energy, until it becomes
very dense and builds up energy until the expanding matter and energy become
too strong to be hindered by the constraints of surrounding matter.
You guessed it, a big explosion, and the process starts over again.
There has been an infinitely many amount of Big Bangs to "start" the universe
over again. This theory probably sounds very far out and unbelievable
to modern day scientists. So did the non-earth-centered universe
theory back in the beginning of the first millennium.
You might think I have left out something, I did. If there
is no Force of gravity, how do satellites rotate around planets?
This occurrence is relatively simple to explain, but easier to understand
with pictures. (Look below) The satellite is initially
moving parallel to the tangent of the planet. And keeps doing so,
as the satellite moves away from the center, the expanding Earth grows,
and the distance perpendicularly from the centerline of the planet increases
at a constant rate, because the satellite is accelerating and so is the
planet, so they cancel their accelerations out. Note: you might say
the satellite can not be accelerating, but you would also say the same
about the Earth's size, there was an initial force on the satellite, this
is what is causing the acceleration. At the same time though, the
relative distance to the centerline parallel to the initially tangential
trajectory is shortening, resulting in a vector pointed perpendicular to
the tangential trajectory. This vector continues to grow while the
tangential vector decreases. Giving the effect of the satellite changing
direction. Since its path is symmetrical, this change in direction
will be constant pointed towards the planet, resulting in what appears
to be a force we call gravity.
