<p>well the meter and the kilogram themselves are either completely or partially defined by the speed of light. its a fundamental constant that a large portion of nature depends on, so i doubt such surgical changes could be realized.</p>

<p>Not so long ago, noone knew about the weak force, and even the most brilliant minds would never think electricity and magnetism are two sides of the same coin. Now we have a theory that unites all three under the same umbrella.<p>In many interpretations of GR it is believed that mass deforms spacetime, but is also influenced by the spacetime it moves through. In the absence of mass, spacetime expands. Carrying along any mass with it. When mass is present this default expansion is overpowered by its influence which causes a contraction. Hence black holes.<p>Gravity is still colored by classical definitions so most assume its power is unidirectional. However there is a quantitative factor for expansion in the very same Einstein equation which defines GR.<p>We need to stop thinking of gravity as a force acting on objects, and rather something that acts on spacetime. Many people advocate this but stop at the rubber sheet analogy, which is completely devoid of the idea that the sheet actually moves as well.</p>

<p>i walked around and it involved force and energy.<p>i will clarify. in the absence of other forces, matter is indeed pinned to the space it is in.<p>you talk about gravity as if its something distinct from what is driving the expansion of the universe.<p>we have that model, its what newton proposed.</p>

<p>Matter is very much pinned to the space its in. If the space between two galaxies expands, the distance between the two galaxies grows. If matter wasnt pinned the distance between the two galaxies would remain the same despite the expansion.<p>Things dont fall to the ground because the earth pulls on them. Earth is pulling in the space around it, and those things come with it. See the river model of general relativity for a more thorough explanation.</p>
