Hello all, i was just wondering if there ever will be or, could be an equation that describes gravity in relation to a constant, ie, g = ? x constant.

Physics news on Phys.org
I would not count on it anytime soon...highly unlikely..
In the absence of gravity, g = 0. ...
Possibly in another universe...
or in a region of space where gravity is constant...
maybe its a constant in sub Planck dimensions...
but we'd likely not be able to measure it very well..
