Apparently the theory that there is a force, called gravity, inside of everything that consists of matter which pulls other objects of matter towards it is not certain enough for scientists. I understand that every theory is up for questioning, but gravity is in the same realm as any other force. As I pick up my backpack, I am exerting an unseen force on the backpack. For scientists to complain about the fact that gravity is an unseen force, therefore unreliable, and not mention other forces is ridiculous. Gravity is the most obvious force there is - there is no mistaking it. We wouldn't be alive if there wasn't gravity.
The problem that scientists encounter is that gravity is acting on objects in a vacuum. I don't understand why the fact that it's in a vacuum matters. The moon and the earth are still objects of matter, and therefore they will be attracted towards each other. There is no other possible explanation for planets orbiting around the sun. It makes perfect sense, so I don't understand why scientists have to come up with another complicated and nonsensical explanation for it.
