What if one of science's most basic assumptions has never been tested where it matters most?In Falsifying Mass-Based Gravity, Richard L. Kennedy takes readers from Henry Cavendish's famous lead-ball experiment to the largest animals ever to walk, fly, and crawl across Earth. Along the way, he asks a plain but unsettling question: if gravity has always worked exactly as we are told, how did seventy-ton dinosaurs walk on land, how did immense pterosaurs fly, and how did dragonflies with two-foot wingspans take to the air?Kennedy examines the gravitational constant, G: its difficult measurements, its variation between experiments, and the way planetary masses, densities, and cosmic models are calculated from it. He challenges the closed loop in which gravity is used to calculate mass and calculated mass is then offered as proof that mass causes gravity.The fossil record provides the book's central evidence. Giant sauropods, towering long-necked dinosaurs, colossal arthropods, and ancient flying reptiles were not imagined. Their bones remain. Their scale presents a physical question that cannot be dismissed simply by repeating the familiar formula.From the Great Pyramid to the Moon, from giraffe circulation to mass extinctions, Falsifying Mass-Based Gravity follows the implications of one possibility: gravity may not be a fixed attraction produced by mass alone. It may instead be connected to motion, vibration, resonance, rotation, and changing conditions within a larger physical system.This is not a textbook defense of settled answers. It is an invitation to inspect the data, follow the math, and ask the question that modern science has placed in a box and shelved.
