Steve posted this comment in regard to Matthews post about a kind of
spiralling aether theory;
============================
Here is my own 'thing to ponder' along these same lines.
I read in an National Geographic article, about two years ago, that
with new 'ultra-sensitive' testing equipment, Galileo’s experiment
with small masses and large masses falling at the same velocity, has
been proven false!
Not only that; but, the smaller mass actually falls faster!
That's right! In a vacuum, a feather actually falls 'faster', than a
lead weight! Not by much I will grant you; but, across enough
distance, it could eventually be seen visually.
My question then is; how does this knowledge alter your view of the
universe?
I am still digesting this little bit of knowledge! It has certainly
brought me to a place, where I am considering things, which I never
even thought about before!
In order for the larger mass to slow down, relative to the smaller
mass, it must be encountering ‘something’, in the Eather.
What is that ‘something’? Perhaps the very subspace grid, upon which
God hung the universe?

========================
Quite intriguing.
I have always considered gravity to be a gradient simply because the
higher you go above the earth the weaker it gets, therefore, it has a
gradient.
Since this has 'something' to do with proximity to other masses,
particularly LARGE masses like the earth, then we CAN indeed control
or influence gravity as indicated, though not yet proven byt the
Tampere stimulated superconductor experiment (I think that is just
diagmagnetism, but that's another story)...
Anyway, I had not seen this comment about the ultrasensitive measuring
finding that larger and smaller masses fall at different
rates...FINALLY, proof.
