The Cause of Gravity Solved

1. Abstract

So far, our understanding of gravity has been quite incoherent. This may have led to some false conclusions about our natural universe and some properties of gravity these conclusions may imply.

The theory which follows in this text stems from the idea that the notion of space curvature is better understood as space contraction, both nearby and within the matter that causes it. This paradigm shift does not give rise to scientific conflict but rather leads us to several remarkable consequences. The most significant of which will follow.

This theory derives mathematical support from the formula of acceleration due to gravity. What makes this formula very interesting is the proportionality between the ‘amount’ of space and the ‘strength’ of gravity.

Each time the radius of a circle doubles, the area quadruples.

Since, in this case, the circles share a common centre, the space the larger circle occupies, that the smaller circle does not, accounts for 75% of the larger circle’s area. At the same time the force of acceleration due to gravity always decreases by 75%.

This result is not a coincidence, but rather expresses a previously unknown relation between space and gravity.

This relation seems to convincingly support the claim that matter contracts space. When space itself contracts, the contraction spreads in a domino-like effect across the whole universe and bends space towards that object.

This seems to be exactly the proportionality that the formula of acceleration due to gravity shows. In that sense even a grain of sand can cause bending/contraction of the whole universe.

This is not merely a matter of diction or semantics, but rather a new found understanding of gravitation. We can now understand what bent space really is..

One benefit our new found understanding is that it leads us to a clearer understanding of the cause of gravity. When matter contracts space, the space between objects becomes increasingly contracted, and hence space between the bodies will be 'lacking'. Can it really be that simple?

When 2 objects approach each other the acceleration due to gravity between the two objects decreases while the contraction of space in that region increases.

Decreased acceleration does not mean decreased force of gravity - but only that two gravitational fields are into a unification process and that the two connected gravity properties are changing.

The cause of acceleration due to gravity is simply the relative change in contraction of space per unit distance. The above mentioned point of view is new but not that strange or different from the prevailing understanding..

Unfortunately, known facts according to how gravity between two objects behave, seems to have 'blinkered' us, so much so that we have thought we already fully understood gravity and therefore have failed to consider any other theoretical frameworks.

This new framework proposes that when matter surrounds space, we are faced with an entirely different phenomenon.

Matter will contract space in the direction away from its centre as well as towards its centre.

The above mentioned domino effect will take affect in both of these directions. However, towards the inner direction the square of the radius will decrease therefore the resultant acceleration will (from a certain point) gradually increase.

This new interpretation implies both the extent of space contraction and the acceleration due to gravity, as we gradually approach the inner centre of a gravitational field.

This means the result is both a gradually increasing contracted space as well as (from a certain point) increasing acceleration due to gravity, as we approach a inner gravitational field center..

This simple claim could very well shed new light on the understanding of the cause of black holes, dark matter, the pioneer anomalies and even the cause of gravity. It could solve all the mysteries of how galaxies and stars were created, at a time when gravity (according to the prevailing theory) ‘should’ have been almost zero.

But it also means that as one approaches the centre of the earth, acceleration due to gravity will increase surprisingly deep inside the earth, and not cancel out component wise as the prevailing theory states.

The basic claim of this theory is that matter contracts space. One of the consequences is that space will move as matter moves. Following this track can bring new light to the cause of dark matter, the pioneer anomaly as well as the underlying cause of magnetism.

This theory also brings new light to general relativity and quantum physics, and shows how the 4 forces can easily be united in a unified field theory.
