The End Of Days

Few days ago when i was in a country side house I saw a dream , a dream really made me think made me wrote to share with you as I started feel that it's not really like any other dreams those I have had seen and forgot in morning or forgotten within few days as the time gone .It's set in my mind and every time knocking me inside my sense I started believe that what it would be happen if that dream became true ,it's not only about me and my life , it's about all of us about this world about this mother nature .Here am trying to describe what I have seen in my dream.
It's was late afternoon suddenly I feel like heavily earth quick as I started look around my eyes gone upon sky I saw bright lights all over started waving , it's not like thundering , it's soundless and not in one particular place , it's almost all over in horizon , suddenly all around getting dark all of a sudden as like some one put off The Sun at once , birds started chittering and I saw moon in sky , no no I was wrong really wrong in my vision , I saw moons , one two , three , four .....I started counting and I lost counting stars are looked like meteor shower and still that light waving around and I started feel air started became quite uneasy for breathing as I feel that oxygen in air started decreasing and I started suffocating and I got wake up from my dream and saw me almost bathed in sweating all over .

It’s sounds a bit like the force of gravitation was diminishing. That eats was thrown out of its orbit around the sun. The earths atmosphere was dissolving.
Wel we still don’t know what gravity really is.

@Nordigrin
I like the scientific analysis. Did you watch the new Mars landing yesterday? :)
@Nordigrin ...ummm...I am not sure what you might mean about not "[knowing] what gravity really is"...?

We've known that it is an attraction of massive particles to each other since Newton's time (late 1600's), and Newton had it more right than was easily measured. This--along with Newtonian mechanics & his calculus--is what is used to get the proper trajectories of rockets, satellites, figure out the orbital elements of new objects, etc.

Einstein figured out the current theory of gravity (general relativity) over 100 yrs ago, with work still being done in it; it refines both our understanding & our ability to explain things such as the precession of Mercury's perihelion, etc. It predicts black holes (the name itself waa coined by J. A. Wheeler), and objects which have become standard fare in Star Trek, etc.: wormholes (though they are not stable).

Einstein's theory predicts gravitational waves, and they were detected just a few years ago, with a recent Nobel Prize going to three co-recipients.

Most fundamentally, the discovery of the Higgs boson at CERN not that long ago finally confirmed the particle which seems to be the origin of mass, itself...which is *truly* an example of knowing, IMO.

So what *do* you mean?

@SomeMichGuy I think what @Nordigrin means is that we don't know why gravity exist with mass, yes there's that "bending of spacetime" that can be calculated precisely using einstein equations but why does it happen? That's a question I never ran into its answer.
@inaccessible I am interested to hear @Nordigrin's own answer, but if you know about the equations...the bending of spacetime is what they describe...

You might read the original papers in translation at the project out of Princeton, I think.
@SomeMichGuy I was thinking more in the lines of @inaccessible is describing. It is a theoretical concept and we see the results of it but not really the mechanics. I don’t claim to be an expert in the field I’m just someone who is interested in the workings of the universe. 😄
@Nordigrin Well the "force" is considered to be a sort of misnomer, but for all sorts of every day uses, Newton's mechanics & his law of universal gravitation are really better than Newton could measure.

But it is better understood than what you seem to realize...
