... Gravitation is a natural phenomenon by which physical bodies attract each other due to their masses. This force occurs whenever masses are present and the two bodies need not to be in contact with each other. It is however the weakest of the fundamental forces of nature.

The False Force - Gravity

The effect of gravity of large distances is also more significant in the universe on the macroscopic scale, showing that the presence of large masses seem to be responsible for gravity, despite distance. The distortion of space-time can be felt at extremely macroscopic distances. Gravity also seems ...

Despite this, however, very few of the extraordinary discoveries of the past century seem to have trickled through ...
