Does anyone else know more on this subject? Is there even anyone studying this stuff?
Gravity is largely an illusion. If Einstein's model of gravity is correct then why don't electrons eventually get drawn into the nucleus of an atom? After all apparently the protons in the neucli attract them... In any case it doesn't exist as a force it's a property of our universe.
