It has long been my contention that there is no such thing as an attractive force which we call gravity but rather the blocking of an all pervading force by objects large and small such that there is a resultant much smaller force pushing them together. Now this seems on the face of it to deny the longstanding and well proven results of the Newtonian F MmG/r squared and should be taken as a given as is well demonstrated by Kepplers Laws of Planetary Motion which work pretty well in our solar system but completely fall down when studying the motion of galaxies, which of course were unknown to these brilliant philosophers. ( I might remind the reader that the current school of thought is that everything in the Universe is attracted to everything else in the Universe whilst at the same time everything in the Universe is flying apart from everything else in the Universe - a complete contradiction if ever there was one. )
And the Eureka moment?
If we take this blocking to be by the area of the body presented to this force then the difference in force is proportional to the square of the distance to this body and thus satisfies observed planetary motion.
Nothing in the real world is as cut and dried as this as some of this force can either curve around or go through the edges of the body but the principle is there and I am sure that by a process of iteration by any existing powerful computer a pretty fair approximation can be made of the relevant factors.
