Le Sage’s solution to the inverse square law makes too much “common sense” to be ignored. Is Le Sage’s solution to Newton’s inverse square law a “complete explanation”? Of course not! The question of how Le Sage’s “gravitons” would interact with matter that it encounters would need to be resolved. Could some of the “gravitons” be captured by that encountered matter, rather than being a purely collision event? If so, would that mean that matter itself, at the atomic or sub-atomic level, slowly gains mass over time? What would be the implications? Of course, this is only one question of
