If gravity were like weather

A speculation by "mechanic"

If gravity weren't like weather,
fickle, girdling the planet
in waves and pockets, there wouldn't
be days on which we could not move.
We wouldn't lie helpless, strapped
to the slowly turning no-g-planet.

From the unpublished work of the "mechanic": "Speculating contrary to common speculation".

In case y'all didn't know, gravity really is like weather. The G "constant" is the least constant of all them constants out there. Variations in G run up to 0.7%. Confirmed published results are moderated to 0.05%. Read here - zeus.wdcb.ru/wdcb/sep/GravConst/welcome_en.html . Then you may wish to check the author's article at arxiv.org/abs/physics/0202058 .

And one more piece of fascinating science, probably related as well - ufn.ioc.ac.ru/ufn98/ufn98_10/ufn9810d.pdf .

To AgoraBasta:

The last link it fascinating work! I am quoting a few words from the last paragraph:

"The authors do not suggest any explanation of the phenomena discussed, and make no hypotheses conserning their possible mechanisms, and quite rightly so!"

I sure they have a hypothesis in hand and already made one regarding different degrees of chaos. What do you think AgoraBasta? Is this an indication of dark matter rulling the universe?

And it's a possible indication of existence of some deeper background of our reality.

AB- you find very interesting stuff. The current effort in the study of matter-QM is much like the old alchemy that eventually gave us new ways to manipulate processes. The research shown in the link you posted is very finely detailed and far clearer than theories and math used in QM. Maybe someday QM will go out and a new and better process will replace it just as happened with alchemy.
