... at least 11.2 km/sec, likewise to escape from the Sun, it would have to be 500 km/sec. Thus, it is imaginable that there is a massive body for which the escape velocity equals the speed of light: 300000 km/sec. Such an object is called a ‘black hole’. Presumably light from such an object could not e ...

Le Sage's theory of gravitation



Le Sage's theory of gravitation is a kinetic theory of gravity originally proposed by Nicolas Fatio de Duillier in 1690 and later by Georges-Louis Le Sage in 1748. The theory proposed a mechanical explanation for Newton's gravitational force in terms of streams of tiny unseen particles (which Le Sage called ultra-mundane corpuscles) impacting all material objects from all directions. According to this model, any two material bodies partially shield each other from the impinging corpuscles, resulting in a net imbalance in the pressure exerted by the impact of corpuscles on the bodies, tending to drive the bodies together. This mechanical explanation for gravity never gained widespread acceptance, although it continued to be studied occasionally by physicists until the beginning of the 20th century, by which time it was generally considered to be conclusively discredited.
