Like, if you want to go super deep and say we are in a simulation, and vibrating strings in a 2D plane - um, ok. I suppose that is technically “flat.”
But the 3-dimensional reality we all experience is on a round globe. Gravity makes sense. Space travel makes sense. Seriously, flat earthers just need to play KSP and it’ll all click.
Quantum gravity does not exist, in spite of decades of research, there is no "graviton" and the "Higgs boson" only serves to provide mass.
Newtonian gravity is describing the effect of objects falling to the ground and makes no explanation for the cause.
Relativistic Gravity fails in predictions 95% of the time and is only being held together because of the introduction of concepts like "dark matter" and "dark energy" (matter and energy that does not otherwise interact with the EM spectrum but is placed exactly where it needs to be in the correct amounts).
There's a great story from my favorite electrical engineering professor, Dr Donald Scott, where he is at the question period of a lecture on electric sun theory.
An older astronomer was getting frustrated with everything he was suggesting and he heckled him. The stupid, self-unaware fuck actually said "yes, we all know there is electricity in space, but it doesn't do anything"
This is why this all sounds like bullshit to you and half the theories don't make sense.
It's because they actually don't make sense they have decided that 3 out of 4 of the fundamental forces are not important to astronomy.

Which theory of gravity?

It's because they are arrogant

Makes sense now right, lol
Thanks, and since electromagnetic force is something like 10^30 stronger than gravity even claims, it seems to be a better route for a solution.
