Understanding the Sun's Gravity and Its Impact on Planetary Orbits

In summary, the conversation revolves around the concept of the Sun's gravity and how it affects the planets in our solar system. The idea that the Sun's gravity is minimal compared to its outward forces and that the planets are actually attracted to the Sun's electrical output is discussed. The conversation also touches on the collapse of the Sun and how its diminishing force may affect the planets in its orbit. The topic is considered incomprehensible by some, but the mass of the Sun is confirmed to be significant and plays a role in its gravitational pull.

I'm sorry, is this thread an exposition on Schizophrenic Physics, or maybe Existential Physics or Da-daistic Physics or what? I'm very untutored in these branches of the field, but always willing to learn.

In the meantime, I think I will remain on the side of the detractors here.

What? You're not enjoying this?

Well, ok, I think we've run out of fuel (hydrogen) on this one...
