LAFFIN AT ME!
In modern physics, the phenomenon of gravitation is most accurately described by the general theory of relativity by Einstein, in which the phenomenon itself is a consequence of the curvature of spacetime governing the motion of inertial objects. The simpler Newton’s law of universal gravitation postulates the gravity force proportional to masses of interacting bodies and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. It provides an accurate approximation for most physical situations including calculations as critical as spacecraft trajectory.
— Wikipedia. Think about how wacky it is that the “most accurate” description of gravity is that it’s just curved space-time —not a force at all but a matter of relation— while calculations can continue to be made using a deprecated theory that is factually in error about its description of the universe but which still produces accurate-enough results!
