description: F = (G x Mss1) x (G x Mss2) Where G = 1.13832865e−9 and Mss is the effective mass in kg. It should be noted early on also that gravitational formulas aren't actually used to calculate gravitational force. They are used in transposed form and used to calculate mass where gravitational force is a given. Even here on Earth we use gravitational force to calculate mass such as when we 'weigh' something or ourselves. We step on to the scales and use gravitational force (weight) to measure our mass. As you might have guessed from my formulas, Mss1 and Mss2 are fractions of M1 and M2 and represent the 'effective mass' of M1 and M2. What this new theory proves is that not the whole mass of two celestial bodies is responsible for the gravitational force between them. The same is true also for surface gravity. When teachers of science impress a class by demonstrating that a small magnet can lift a paperclip against the gravity of the whole Earth well that is very misconceived. If I stood in London and held my arm out in front of me, would the gravity of the whole Earth be pulling down on my arm? No. In fact, the gravity in Sydney, Australia would be pulling in the opposite direction. Mss1 and Mss2, at a fraction of M1 and M2, account for the total mass responsible for the gravitational force between M1 and M2. Therefore, we no longer require dark matter to fill in for the apparent missing mass. The dark matter problem is solved. This paper also covers the inverse square law on gravity, explains why gravitational force appears to follow the inverse square and explains mathematically why it doesn't follow the inverse square exactly, hence its absence from my formulas. This theory is classical in nature and so relies on the fact that gravity is a force and is a natural phenomenon where the cause of gravity isn't explained but rather is accepted as a property of mass. Because this theory of gravity is novel and is a standalone replacement theory, this paper seeks to cover everything including gravitational waves, gravitational shielding, general relativity and dark matter we've already touched upon in this introduction. Because of the nature and extent of this paper, it is written in 'text book' form.
