What would happen to our solar system if gravity stopped, what will happen to the planets? Will they fall in the middle of nowhere, or lead to another dimension? Any of you guys have theories?
That would mean the absolution of space time. When I think of a solar system, I see balls swirling around on a frictionless fabric... Gravity is caused by the depressions in the fabric. You could remove the fabric to get rid of gravity and then everything would just fall Or remove the flexibility in the fabric, dtiffening it to make a flat surface, than everything would probably drift apart with their momentum, eventually smashing into other things. The solar system would cease to be any kind of system at all because no gravity would hold things together. The amazing thing would be that the general rotation of the sun in relation to blackholes and the centers of galaxies would become apparent, and all of the relativities of speed caused by systems centring on stars based on gravity would become obsolete, and some things might seem to drastically accelerate with all of their momentum, while others may seem to decelerate. The sun might just be faster than the planets that orbit it, smashing into them and destroying them. But they would also begin to evaporate because no gravity would be holding the gases together.
you do realize gravity is what causes things to "fall" so how would objects "fall" without gravity? ?
It can also keep things semi stationary like the suns gravitational pull of all the planets or the earth gravitational pull on the moon
Things won’t “fall,” everything held together by gravity will break apart. All the planet’s matter will break apart because it is held together mostly by the gravitation pull of the core.
You’re answer is the most accurate and I am being serious, after everything breaks apart because gravity holds things together, eventually all matter will be equally distributed across the universe
The gravitational force and dark energy work in tandem and maintain the balance, although dark energy is stronger than gravity which theoretically which is why the universe keeps accelerating. So one outcome of the absence of gravity would be an accelerated expansion of the universe.
