back to energy and gravity
I am going to head back to the speculation that energy has gravity. I believe it does but we can not effectively measure it since one atom contains in the upper billions of joules of energy and since we can not contain large enough amounts of energy to equal the corresponding amount of matter (according to E=mc2)in a large enough quanity to measure its gravity, I don't know of any current way to measure "the gravity of energy" outside of knowing the exact amounts of matter and energy in our sun. But if energy does emit gravity then that could help answer questions about dark matter. Dark matter is the made up factor in wide scale physics. I am saying that dark matter is actually light matter. That is all of the light, heat, and radiation energy in the universe (or gravitational vicinity) that is throwing off calculations.

Re: back to energy and gravity
hmm...I see but how far off are the calculations that would require the existence of dark matter. Wouldn't all of the radiation traveling through the vacum of space and all of the energy from the stars and planets emit enough gravity to throw it off?
