The discussion revolves around a theory proposing that gravitation results from the right composition and amount of elements, combined with temperature, suggesting the potential for creating gravity and anti-gravity. Participants challenge the validity of this theory, emphasizing that gravity, according to Newton's work, is generated by mass and that arbitrary collections of elements produce gravity independently of temperature. Critics argue that the original idea lacks specificity and quantitative testable predictions, labeling it as a collection of scientific-sounding phrases rather than a legitimate theory. They stress the importance of providing proof and adhering to scientific standards for theories, suggesting that without substantial evidence, the ideas presented are more suited for science fiction. The conversation highlights the necessity of a solid educational foundation in physics to engage meaningfully in such discussions. Ultimately, the thread indicates that personal speculation is not appropriate for the forum, leading to a recommendation for closure.
