  LeSage gravity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
LeSage's theory is not based on the concept of a universal attraction of matter but instead, it posits that gravity is the result of a medium (like a gas) which consists of high speed ultra-mundane particles that fills the entire universe and interacts in material objects.
LeSage realized that the interactions between the gravitational particles and ordinary matter must be inelastic, that is, the particles must lose energy in the process.
LeSage and later other workers realized that this problem is eliminated if the gravitational particles move at near infinite speeds (much greater than the speed of light).

 Gravity   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Speed of gravity: Einstein's theory of relativity predicts that the speed of gravity (defined as the speed at which changes in location of a mass are propagated to other masses) should be consistent with the speed of light.
Gravity is small unless at least one of the two bodies is large, but the small gravitational force exerted by bodies of ordinary size can fairly easily be detected through experiments such as the Cavendish torsion bar experiment.
Gravity is the only one of the four fundamental forces of nature that stubbornly refuses to be quantised (the other three: Electromagnetism, the Strong Force, and the Weak Force, can be quantised).

 Gravitation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Moreover, gravity is the reason for the very existence of the earth, the sun and other celestial bodies; without it matter would not have coalesced into these bodies and life as we know it would not exist.
Gravity is also responsible for keeping the earth and the other planets in their orbits around the sun, the moon in its orbit around the earth, for the tides, and for various other natural phenomena that we observe.
In common usage "gravity" and "gravitation" are either used interchangeably, or the distinction is sometimes made that "gravity" is specifically the attractive force of the earth, while "gravitation" is the general property of mutual attraction between bodies of matter.

Variations in the force of gravity acting on a weight suspended by a spring cause the spring to stretch.
On Earth, gravity causes objects to have weight; it accelerates objects (at 9.806 metres per second per second/32.174 ft per second per second) towards the centre of the Earth, the ground preventing them falling further.
Gravity is regarded as one of the four fundamental forces of nature, the other three being the electromagnetic force, the strong nuclear force, and the weak nuclear force.

 Gravity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The acceleration due to the apparent "force of gravity" that "attracts" objects to the surface of the earth is not quite the same as the acceleration that is measured for a free-falling body at the surface of the earth (in a frame at rest on the surface).
Gravity is small unless at least one of the two bodies is large or one body is very dense and the other is close by, but the small gravitational interaction exerted by bodies of ordinary size can fairly easily be detected through experiments such as the Cavendish torsion bar experiment.
Since Einstein discovered his theory of gravitation the gravity is not one of the fundamental forces of nature so it is a small wonder that it has not been fitted into the formalism of quantum mechanics (the three fundamental forces: Electromagnetism, the Strong Force, and the Weak Force, can be).

 Lesage's Shadows
Gravity must be caused by an agent acting constantly according to certain laws, but whether this agent be material or immaterial is a question I have left to ye consideration of my readers.
Lesage himself was at least partly aware of what a radical concept this is. As to why no one previously had thought of this explanation for gravity (as far as he admitted knowing, despite having collected Fatio’s papers), he wrote
Lesage himself recognized this fundamental problem, and this is why he suggested (as mentioned above) that ordinary macroscopic bodies are constructed like “cages”, i.e., a lattice network of tiny inter-connected bars.

 Push Gravity - Physics   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Gravity is proportional to mass because the push of gravity acts on the fundamental mass which are electrons, protons, and neutrons.
Push force of gravity is consistent with sun moon observations as long as the gravity waves are not totally blocked.
If push gravity depends upon a net flow of particles in a given direction, then an orientation which aligns the matrix of atoms with the flow would leave most of them in the gravitational "shadow" of the front plane.

 Standard Model and gravity mechanism
Because the light passes perpendicularly to the gravity field vector at closes approach (average deflection position), the increased gravitational energy of a slow moving body would be used equally in two ways: 50% of the energy would go into increasing the speed, and 50% into changing the direction (bending it towards the sun).
The mean angle of the object to the radial line from the gravity force from the sun is 90 degrees, so for slow-moving objects, 50% of the energy is used in increasing the speed of the object, and 50% in deflecting the path.
In the treatment at http://feynman137.tripod.com/ the overlap problem is ignored on the basis that the source of gravity for most of the problems of interest is the Earth, and that doesn't have enough fundamental particles in it to allow a significant chance of overlap.

 Predicted force strengths and all nuclear particle masses from a causal mechanism
Gravity is caused by the surrounding expansion at vast distances from the observer.
Gravity is the effect of inward directed graviton radiation pressure of the inflow of the fabric of spacetime inwards to fill the volume left empty by the outward acceleration of galaxies in the big bang.
LeSage argued that there is some kind of pressure in space, and that masses shield one another from the space pressure, thus being pushed together by the unshielded space pressure on the opposite side.

 Possible New Properties of Gravity
Viewing gravity as a force that propagates from Sun to Earth, the Sun’s gravity should appear to emanate from the position the Sun occupied when the gravity now arriving left the Sun.
The absence of detectable aberration implies that, to the extent that gravity is a propagating force, its speed of propagation must be very high compared to that of light.
GR suggests that gravity is not a force that propagates.

 Predicted force strengths and all nuclear particle masses from a causal mechanism
Gravity is the shielding of gauge boson pressure.
Since gravity is the inward push caused by the graviton/Higgs field flowing around the moving fundamental particles to fill in the void left in their wake, there will only be a gravitational ‘pull’ (push) where there is a surrounding expansion.
This means that the effective distance at which the gravity mechanism source lies is at 63.2 % of the radius of the universe, R = ct. At that distance, the density of the universe is 20 times the local density where we are, at a time of 15,000,000,000 years after the big bang.

It is strongly believed that three of the four fundamental forces (the strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force, and the electromagnetic force) are manifestations of a single, more fundamental force.
Nikola Tesla challenged Albert Einstein's theory of relativity, announcing he was working on a Dynamic theory of gravity (which began between 1892 and 1894) and argued that a "field of force" was a better concept and focused on mediums with electromagnetic energy that fills all of space.
The standard acceleration due to gravity at the Earth's surface is, by convention, equal to 9.80665 metres per second squared.

 [No title]
Gravity journals are locked into speculative quantum gravity funding and by their actions are even more bigoted against a proof that refutes their prejudice.
Therefore, if gravity was an elastic pulling effect (instead of the pushing effect proven above), the furthest planets would have to move the fastest to maintain their orbits, and the universe would be completely different to the way it actually is! A typical confusion with this concerns hyped-up ‘quantum entanglement’ interpretations of quantum mechanics.
Gravity is applied as normal, the mechanism explains not only what is already known but anomalies in existing observations, and these were predicted by the mechanism before the anomalies were found.

 Paradoxes Resolved, Origins Illuminated - Are forces the result of particles?
It seems to me that in Einstein's General Relativity Theory, the gravity force was due to curvature in the space continuum and not gravitons.
In my rendering of this type of gravity model, part of the "Meta Model" that Don mentioned in his reply to you, the force carriers are the real gravitons and the QM spin-2 "gravitons" are called "elysons" and are constituents of a medium called "elysium".
Applying this to gravity, we now realize that force (the analog of acceleration) drives potential (the analog of velocity), and not the other way around.

However, this predicted deflection is only half as much as observations of this deflection, which were made after General Relativity was developed in 1915.
Combining gravity with these forces of quantum mechanics to create a theory of quantum gravity is currently an important topic of research amongst physicists.
Scientists have theorized about the graviton (a particle that transmits the force gravity) for years, but have been frustrated in their attempts to find a consistent quantum theory for it.

Gravity in a room: the curvature of the Earth is negligible at this scale, and the force lines can be approximated as being parallel and pointing straight down to the center of the Earth
In terms of Planck units: the charge of a proton is 0.085, while the mass is only Template:Sn.
Here, the acceleration of gravity is a constant, g, because in the equations above, {r}_{21} would be a constant vector, pointing straight down.

But then observations of galaxies and quasars forced me to accept the fact that extragalactic redshifts were primarily intrinsic and not the result of recessional velocity in an expanding universe.
The objection by Feynman to pushing gravity which was brought to my attention by John Kierein was that objects in orbital motion such as the earth would experience resistance from increased graviton flux in the direction of their motion.
It is appropriate to quote Creer, however: "For an adequate explanation we may well have to await a satisfactory theory of the origin and development of the universe." The variable mass theory is a candidate to fulfill that phrophecy.

It can be seen that the vector form of the equation is the same as the scalar form, except for the vector value of F and the unit vector.
If both and change in opposite direction by the same amount the product, the total energy of the object stays the same for a free falling object.
There is one important result of Einstein's gravity: to keep the change of the same as change of there must be a relative increase in amount of space (space curvature) equal the relative time dilation.
