I'm all for understanding gravity better. If you know how to go about that feel free to speak up.
Gravity has come full circle. Before it was a 'force' like any other. Then Einstein made it a geometric consequence of mass distorting the fabric it sits in. Now we are back to describing gravity as a distinct 'force' perhaps leaking out of other, folded up, dimensions.
Our current theories of the universe are mere weak approximations until gravity is 'folded in'. (ouch! bad pun!)
Newton had all the theory we needed until Relativity completely reshaped the landscape which was again reshaped by quantum mechanics.
I think we are overdue for anther shake-up. Although it can be argued that Einstein's eureka moment was aberrantly early along the evolutionary time line of theoretical physics development.
As an aside, I just submitted my patent for a FTL radio.
It works like this:
1) Create a tiny black hole with a particle accelerator.
2) This black hole evaporates in a wash of Hawking radiation.
3) Since Hawking radiation arises from Virtual particles pulled from the vacume energy of the universe, quantum probability means that they can be anything and posses any energy (even negative energy and mass). The group of particles with negative energy & mass are termed tachyons.
4) Just like a regular radio set can alter ambient electrons into an ordered pattern a radio or TV receiver can decipher, a (yet to be developed) radioset next to the evaporating blackhole can order these newly created tachyons as they streak away at FTL speeds.
5) A receiver elsewhere in the universe can detect these tachyons and decipher the pattern just as a traditional radio captures radiating electrons and deciphers their pattern into displayable radio and television broadcasts.
