Unexplained Gravitational Phenomena in a Donut-Shaped Universe

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a theory proposing a donut-shaped universe model to explain gravitational phenomena, including concepts like infinite expansion and relativistic travel. The theory suggests that two-dimensional beings could perceive gravitational effects as an unexplainable attraction between sand grains, paralleling general relativity's language. Participants note that while the model raises intriguing ideas, it may also imply an inherent, mysterious force that lacks a clear origin. The conversation highlights the challenges of explaining such phenomena within our three-dimensional understanding. Overall, the theory invites further exploration and mathematical analysis to clarify these gravitational effects.

I set up an theory about a Model of the universe, and tried to draft some basic ideas of how to explain Gravitation, "Infinite" Universe, Expansion, relativistic travel, time travel etc. Anyone is welcome for discussion...

interesting. You might need some math to explain some effects, but otherwise, not bad for a quick read.
 
This quote from your page:

"Imaginary two dimensional people living between the grains of sands would now encounter some unexplainable affection of those sand quantities to them or other grains of sand. Those phenomena would be always affecting and never repelling, don’t consume any energy out of themselves and the sand people may call this effect gravity."

Sounds like it could just be talking in the lagauge of general relativity, almost.
Or, it sound more as if there is always an imaginary, unexplainable force. We in three dimensions can't explain why the grains of sand are moving into the troughs, so certainly the 2D people can't explain it. At least we can't explain the origin of the force responsible for the phenomenon.
