I'm trying to get this concept straight in my head. Take, for example, the International Space Station; it is orbiting the Earth in considerable gravity, yet the inhabitants feel weightless. So they cannot be exerting a force on the Earth aside from their own minuscule gravitational pull right?
If this is true, could you in theory have a very focused gravitational field (caused by energy or super dense matter or something) and be orbiting it very quickly in a tight circle while feeling as if you are standing still?
