There are gravitational potential models for the sun, planets, moons and most objects

The gravitational potential field is real. People have jobs working with it, predicting it. When you take the gradient of the potential it gives you an acceleration field that is the acceleration expected at every point in the field with its strength and direction. I worked on that at NASA. There are many ways now to create “wireless” 3D acceleration fields that can penetrate materials and deliver the acceleration needed. I do not say “force” because “acceleration” is what you measure. You might make your living being playful and entertaining, but sometimes you go too far to trivialize and clickbait things. You threw in lots of things that are not really relevant just to fill you video. Not efficient for learning — and then APPLYING what you have found. Find the real gravitational potential, not toys and useless demos that are nowhere near right or useful.

I worked on the EGM models (Earth Gravitational Models) back about 1978 with Steve Klosko on a NASA contract. While I was studying gravitational wave detection at Univ Maryland College Park with Joe Weber and Charles Misner.

The Global Change Observatory uses a lot of real data and real models of the gravity field of earth.. There are models for the sun, planets, moon, and for the whole solar system. How do you think people maintain satellites and plan precise trips to Mars? And keep GPS and GNSS time exact?

My very first full time scientific job in 1970 was tracking all things in earth orbit using – the earths gravitational potential models of that time and precise tracking. Real mathematics, real data, real verification and models. – that actually work precisely.

Shame on you for trivializing gravity just to drive up your clicks. Are you just an entertainer, or really trying to equip the world to work with real fields? Real data is lots more interesting and useful than toys and only “talking about”. Focus on “gravitational engineering”.
