What is the elusive origin of gravity?

In summary, the origin of gravity remains elusive and is still a topic of much debate and speculation among physicists. While some theories, such as the Big Bang, attempt to explain the origin of gravity, there is no definitive answer. Gravity is often described as the way matter affects geometry, but this concept raises further questions and puzzles about the nature of gravity and its relationship to the other fundamental forces. Despite our current understanding of gravity through theories like General Relativity, there is still much to be explored and understood about this mysterious force.

robust manifold

Because it's right under our noses.

That is, the robust manifold (continuum) i.e. pseudo-Riemannian spacetime, is right under (and part of) our nose etc.
