Why is the reach of gravity potentially infinite?
The answer resides in the description of how matter forms. Remember the low energy density around the proton that causes unifying particles (EEPs) to swarm it resulting in the formation of an electron around a proton and the sloughing of the photon? Well that flow of unifying particles is continuous once matter forms. Unifying particles flow into all mass that contains protons, and photons are sloughed from all electrons that surround protons. It is a continuous flow and mass is always surrounded by a zone of low energy density caused by that continuous flow.
The low energy density surrounding mass would have the same effect as curved or warped space. The difference between gravity in GR and gravity in the ISU is that there is a specific cause of low energy density zone surrounding mass in the ISU while there are only equations that define the curvature of space in GR, but no cause.
Any given volume of space at any energy density contains a “finite number” of unifying particles. If you remove some particles from the perfect background to form a photon, then backfill occurs. Photons take up less space than the EEPs from which they form. Backfill is the movement of unifying particles into the low energy density left by the flow of unifying particles through mass and out as photons. Since there are a finite number of unifying particles in any volume of space, the backfill is felt across the entire volume no matter how far reaching the volume. All of the EEPs in that volume of space are shifted to fill the space vacated by the formation of the new proton.
Bodies in space will move toward the path of lowest energy density. In the case of two bodies, since both are surrounded by low energy density zones that reach across any volume of space due to the “backfill” effect, the path of lowest energy density is a straight line between them. They will ultimately tend toward each other and this tendency will eventually draw them deeper into each others “gravitational well”. Hence the reach of gravity is infinite.
