Arent there other forces of gravity from things like super massive black holes at the center of the galaxy that also apply a force on the planets in our solar system? So if hypothetically you had a switch that could turn off the effect of gravity produced by the sun alone (including current inertia so everything doesnt just fly off in the direction they where already moving) would the objects effected by the sun's gravity take the same path through the galaxy as the sun was already on, or are they only on that path because the sun's gravity is strong enough to keep them there?

So basically I'm asking if two opposing gravities could create drag or is that not a properly defined term to talk about the way those forces interact? Cliff is a really hands on and creative guy and I can see that come out in lots of what he says that isnt quite accurate but at the same time is very interesting and thought provoking, lol.
