What is Gravity made out of?

Question

Do not comprehend.

Answer 1

Don't feel bad, no one else comprehends it either.

It isn't made of anything, since it isn't matter. It is an attractive force between each mass and every other mass in the universe. For the purpose of detailed calculations, it is said that "Gravity is mediated by the exchange of virtual particles called gravitons." They are virtual particles, useful for modelling and calculations, not real particles. None as ever been detected.

Einstein's perspective in General Relativity is that spacetime is warped in the presence of mass.

Neither description tells you why or how gravity happens. So far, I have seen nothing in Newtonian, quantum, or relativistic physics, or in superstring theory or quantum gravity theory, that does tell why or how gravity happens. In my opinion, we are nowhere near understanding this.

Answer 2

Gravity is an always-attractive force that acts between particles of matter. It is related to the other forces in Nature that we know about including electromagnetism. The exact, mathematical, way to show this unity - called Superstring Theory - remains experimentally untested.

Space and time are indivisibly connected to gravity. If you turned off gravity, space and time would cease to exist!

In other words: No one knows for certain.
Gravity is a mystery.

Great question!

Check out these theories:
One idea is that "gravitrons" are one-dimensional closed 'strings' of energy that wiggle in an 11-dimensional arena. Another idea has gravitons as donut-shaped loops that interconnect like some enormous chain mail suit.

The graviton particles carry a 'spin' of 2 units, have no rest mass, and travel as packets of space-time curvature, at the speed of light.

We don't know what else to call it because it is absolutely the most fundamental thing in the universe. Because of this we can't describe its essence in terms of still-simpler terms or nouns.

Answer 3

based on Einsteins theory of relativity, space is like a trampoline, and the sun, being a heavy object, sinks into the fabric, causing wrinkles in space making the planets revolve around it, causing gravity. Some people say that gravity is caused by gravitons, which may be true, but its not pr oven yet. Commen seance makes us just know there there. Gravitons make gravity for very small things, and relativity makes gravity for very small things.

Answer 4

Gravity isn't 'made' of anything other than energy.

It is a force of attraction between large objects (you can imagine it like a big magnet, or like static electricity)

Answer 5

gravitons. there are four forces of nature, one of them being gravity, of which is the least understood. all of the forces have what is known as the ' carrier particle.' so, the carrier particle for gravity is refered to as the GRAVITON.

Answer 6

gravity is a direct force that is applied by the relation of matter. or exists because of a relation of matter. interaction of matter

Answer 7

Gravitrons. Isn't that what Hawking says?

Answer 8

Nothing

Answer 9

energy

Answer 10

mass, molecules, etc
