Has anyone ever tested the theory of matter that is repelled by gravity instead of attracted? They would zoom away and seperate like helium escaping the Earth.

- ForOldHack 2y agoThis would be way cool. A way to rid science of randos and their theories. For the fourth time today, I have to admit being facetious.

- tsimionescu 2y agoWhat theory is that? How would it be tested? Gravity is not even a force, it is a consequence of how space deforms around mass&energy. So, even if something like "negative mass" existed, it wouldn't repel, it would just cancel out.

What if negative mass was a monopole? Testing the theory would be be the same kind of tests created for testing the Big Bang.
