Gravity and The Cosmos

Think of that. There is a property of space that regulates its very structure. Bodies in space are not independently acting with some kind of mysterious pulling force. Bodies are the stuff of space and each body exists in a space-energy well we have been calling a space-energy depletion. All space energy wells extend throughout space and they all interact. The tendency is for all energy wells to combine into a single huge energy well in order to reach full symmetry. Space, by means of space-energy, tends to bring all bodies together. Astronomers have discovered that we live in an expanding universe that began about 13 billion years ago as a big bang. The universe expands with a great deal of motion (kinetic) energy and is slowed by its gravity.

The impact of this new gravity equation is dramatized by comparing it with the Newtonian equation. We find that the mysterious "constant" G, or actually its reciprocal, 1/G is a measure of the tension of space. And as space expands its tension or stiffness is decreasing, resulting in the increase of gravity. Look at the gravity equation. The observed expansion of space means its scale, L is increasing and therefore the force between bodies is increasing as our Universe ages. Our aging Universe is getting flabby (lower space tension) allowing each gravity well to deepen. The universe has its own variable braking mechanism. Its space-tension is not constant. When this result is imposed on expansion models, we find that the degree of braking is independent of its matter, N_U. The fate of the Universe does not depend on how much matter-energy it has. Dark matter is an issue for astrophysicists wanting to explain galactic rotation rates, but not the Universe. Let's go back in time. When the Universe was very young, its tension was enormous and thus gravity was extremely weak. The initial expansion was unchecked by gravity. And so it shall be again if the Universe collapses on itself in a big crunch. But the crunch will be softened as gravity vanishes in the final moments of collapse.

We live in a fantastic Universe. Aren't we lucky!
