I have my own theory for gravity... It involves space as not a force that pushes as Einstein explains but pulls ... Think of it as like a game of tug of war... Where the knot in the middle is like the earth... Space pulls all around it therefore earth is a sphere... The photons from the sun keep us in orbit and gives the earth its orbit as well... And could even explain the expanding universe... What goes up must come down... Except for light...i know this goes against the theory of relativity in some aspects but it makes sense to me... The sun leaves seven or eight pounds of photons on earth every year, one side of the earth gets heated up so it turns away from the sun to cool down... My theory explains both pushing and pulling think of the right side of the knot being pulled by the guys on the left side of the knot...and so therefore the space is pushing on the right side of the knot because the guys on the left are pulling and the earths orbit is because the suns rays heat up one side of the earth so it turns away from the sun to cool down And the universe is expanding because all of the photons and whatnot are pushing everything away But then the planets stay in proximity to the sun because ... Well I have to think this one through... Oh ok so where the sun is being pulled it is large so it takes up most of the pulling power of space around it... So give and take some power and viola... There you have it people.... Where's my nobel I know I'm not a scientist but my dad was one, he taught me everything .... And according to science I have 2 Phd's in my DNA muhahahaha
this would explain why planets orbit faster when they're closer to the sun ... heat rises... photons escaping into space... oh and blackholes... they're just bodies of matter out in space with no nearby photons so they begin to collect into a massive body and then collapse into itself to have a stronger pull than space? amirite?
