QMU physics prof. Ginestra Bianconi proposes a new quantum gravity theory in which gravity is not a fundamental force but is “derived from an entropic action coupling matter fields with geometry”. The theory potentially explains dark matter (G-field) & dark energy (Λ).

Sen. Warren, we admired your masterful questioning of the brain-burned wackadoodle RFKJr! He again demonstrated that he was operating entirely beyond his depth limit and bent on corruptly spreading and personally benefitting from the deranged influence he'd have as Secretary of Health.

The chart pinned on my profile is from Rafael F. Lang,
"Ups and Downs in the Search for Dark Matter"
Dec 16, 2013, Physics 6, 136. Although DM research now looks beyond WIMPs & neutrinos, this diagram (shown in simplified form below) is still a conversation opener😉

Nice idea! What is the likely range of planetesimal sizes?
