Abstract[1]
The physical cause of gravitation is simple: the collision of one thing
with another. Here I propose that the unseen particles involved in these
collisions provide the acceleration that drives gravitation. We do not know
exactly what these particles are, but it is clear they must be decelerated in
the process. Here I assume they are “aether” particles, as distinguished from
the anathematic fixed “ether” particles nullified by the famous
Michelson-Morley experiment. Having been decelerated, aether particles become
lethargic, tending to hang around whatever baryonic matter was involved in the
collision. Like the nitrogen in Earth’s atmosphere, these aether particles are
entrained, attached to Earth as a far-reaching “dark matter” halo. They provide
the physical reason for interpretations of gravity calling for “curved space.”
At low altitudes this entrained “aetherosphere” allows little of the “ether
wind” that Michelson and Morley tried to measure. The upshot: proximal aether
is less active (lower pressure) than distal aether (higher pressure). Things in
the vicinity of massive objects receive stronger impacts from the distal side
of the halo than from the proximal side. This Aether Deceleration Theory is
supported by much of the data generally considered as confirmation
of General Relativity Theory.

Note: After working on this intermittently for the last 40 years, I finally felt
comfortable enough with the result to hurdle through the mainstream publication
process. Nowadays, the first step is to put your unreviewed paper on an e-print
site, arXiv, or viXra,
the alternative. Unfortunately, the arXiv site is highly censored, being
well-guarded by academics who have grown up with the “no-aether” paradigm
necessary to join the physics establishment. You would have to be endorsed by
one of them before submitting a paper.
The viXra site is also free, does not
require endorsements, applies no censorship, and will post anything scientific
that is not libellous. And unlike conference proceedings, anything you post
normally is not considered “previously published,” which otherwise would make
it ineligible for mainstream journals. I encourage all dissidents to consider
viXra. Your paper is date-stamped, can be revised, and will be available
perpetually as a free download. It might even be recognized by the mainstream after
the aether ban is lifted.

You are nearly alone in thinking this.
We know the reason for gravitation. The underlying field must keep an overall balance, symmetry, or energy compensation. This is as is all else in the physical universe a totally deterministic or necessary consequence. All masses attract. The distance between them is critical. All of this is maintained by the quantum field which is supported by sub-field I call virtual, and then the fundamental field. Universal Oscillation Theory

You go Glenn! The exploration into the cause of gravity encompasses just about everything that is problematic in modern physics / astronomy / cosmogony. From the study of gravity, our curiosity takes us into the study of the history of aether, geometry, astronomy, fluid dynamics, tectonics, particle physics, magnetism, light, field theory, and on an on. Such a great jumping-off point to get questioning minds off the beaten path of approved thought. Thanks so much for your work. Great, concise writing.
