Abstract

An error in Newton's law of gravity is corrected by removing all mass from his equation, causing the demise of the invalid Planck units and the disappearance of gravitational mass. In GR, the assumption that g is constant for all substances becomes logically impossible. The assumed constancy of the speed of light is also a false assumption, requiring that theory to be replaced as soon as possible. It is shown that the source of gravity is almost certainly electrostatic in nature, the attractive force being proportional to the number of nucleons in objects, shedding some light on the construction of neutrons and nuclei. Some favorable experimental evidence is given and a simple experiment proposed.
