Maybe you should ignore the question whether gravity is needed. I think it is needed, but I don't know enough physics to be sure.

You would definitely need glass for that answer, which is not the case here.

Hmm, are you sure there is no light involved here, micro? Sun light, or lighting stuff?

Yes, light is very important. But you asked "Is it light?", which it is not.
