    How does gravity get away from a source so it can pull back to the source?

    If gravity is generated inside the sun by the mass of the sun, how does it initially get away from the sun out to the edges of our solar system(or the edge of the universe) so that it can pull everything back to the sun? I've heard the analogy about how it's like a funnel filled with sand and...

    What would happen to Earth's orbit if it increased in mass or lost velocity?

    Would it begin to spiral into the sun or would it slip into a new orbit? Don't most meteorite impacts occur due to the Earth sweeping into the meteor like a car hitting bugs? Wouldn't each and every impact slow the Earth down a tiny bit while also adding to the mass of the planet? I...

    Does the existance of relativity prove that gravity's wrong?

    Yes, something else is pulling your book to the floor, electromagnetism. Don't bother explaining that your book isn't made of metal or magnets, I understand that. It is made of atoms though and each and every atom is acted on by the electromagnetic field of the Earth. If I rub a balloon(not...

    Does the existance of relativity prove that gravity's wrong?

    The point I'm trying to get across is that gravity might be wrong, completely and utterly WRONG! Much of our current understanding(Big Bang, black holes, gravitons, etc.) is based on the idea that mass generates gravity. If this concept is wrong, then every one of those ideas that's based on...

    Does the existance of relativity prove that gravity's wrong?

    If Einstein's work proves that Newton's gravity is wrong, why do physicists still use gravity as though it's a sound scientific theory? When Drake successfully circumnavigated the Earth in the 16th century, scientists realized that Aristotle's 'flat Earth' was wrong and this opened the way for...

    Is Earth the center of the universe?

    Physicists claim that the universe is a ball of galaxies that exploded from a single point in space with a Big Bang. In the twentieth century they hooked a super computer up to a super telescope and made a super map of the entire universe. The data is available to anyone but the picture that has...
