The trouble with this kind of theory is that for a force like gravity, if you consider the force outside a sphere surrounding the sun, the force is identical no matter how the mass inside is distributed, whether it's the sun or a solar mass black hole inside the sphere.
- wallace_f 9y agoAt extreme scales gravity may behave in strange and unexpected ways -- as do other phenomena.
- dbasedweeb 9y agoIt would have to be scales beyond the observable universe then, because it appears to operate as expected. If distance scales change things, then nearby galaxies would behave differently from very large clusters, quasars should display odd behavior, smaller galaxies would behave very differently from larger ones. We don’t see any of that.
