Scientists perceive gravity as a “disturbance of space-time caused by the mass and energy present within it”. In doing so, they use the term “curved space”, which is nothing more than a “system of rules requiring that distances be measured along curved lines”. Gravity is a non-selective, long-range force and the only “known” force that holds matter together within celestial bodies, celestial bodies within galaxies, and galaxies within clusters of galaxies. Through careful observation and calculation, scientists have concluded that galaxies rotate too quickly, i.e., that gravitational force alone could not keep the celestial bodies on the outskirts of galaxies bound together unless, in addition to the matter forming stars and planets, there also existed 23% dark matter and 73% dark energy. The lack of mass is even more pronounced when it comes to galaxies within clusters, and the gravitational attraction between galaxy clusters is almost nonexistent, which in itself is “unusual”. Although it has been almost unanimously accepted, the assumed existence of dark matter and dark energy has not been proven. This means that the problem remains unsolved.

In order to even begin to approach its understanding and resolution, one must first abandon the prejudice that the attractive force between two material bodies depends solely on their masses and the distance between them. Such an approach requires firm faith in the existence of the cosmos of hereditary material and consistency in applying the fundamental principles of the Model. Not only multicellular beings live on Earth, therefore the cosmos of hereditary material is not built exclusively from the invisible components of existence of the hereditary materials of multicellular beings. The existence of a large amount of material concentrated within a star that has no planetary system – in the cosmos of hereditary material, is the consequence of the existence of a large number of evolutionarily close unicellular beings (beings whose genomes differ little or not at all) in the cosmos in which you live. The existence of a large amount of material distributed in the form of clouds of atoms, molecules, and dust in interstellar and intergalactic space – in the cosmos of hereditary material, is the consequence of the existence of a large number of evolutionarily close living beings whose physical structure is simpler than that of unicellular beings with a nucleus – in the cosmos in which you live. Do not forget: evolutionary (genetic) proximity or distance among living beings – “here” is the same as the spatial proximity or distance among celestial bodies built from the invisible component of existence of the hereditary material of these beings – “there”! The cause of mutual attraction between material bodies, the attractive force you call gravity, does not lie within the space-time of the cosmos in which those bodies exist. Nor does the cause of mutual repulsion between material bodies, the repulsive force responsible for the expansion of the cosmos, lie within the space-time of the cosmos in which those bodies exist. The evolutionary convergence or divergence of unicellular or multicellular beings living on Earth determines the distribution of matter and energy within the space-time of the cosmos of hereditary material in the same way that gravitational fields “determine” the distribution of matter and energy in the cosmos in which you live. Naturally, the reverse also applies: a change in the distribution of matter and energy within the space-time of the cosmos of hereditary material determines the evolutionary convergence or divergence of living beings on Earth.

Mutual attraction or repulsion requires energy. The energy in the space-time of the cosmos of hereditary material is analogous to the organic structure of the body, brain, and genome of the beings that live on Earth. This is where one should seek the forces that change the spatial distribution of material bodies in the cosmos of hereditary material and the solution to the great mystery of nature: the missing mass in galaxies. Let me be even more specific. In the cosmos of hereditary material, and this also applies to the cosmos in which you live, there is absolutely nothing that could cause the mutual attraction or repulsion of material bodies. Because the distribution of matter and energy within the space-time of the cosmos of hereditary material depends on the evolutionary convergence or divergence of unicellular or multicellular beings living on Earth, as well as on the amount and arrangement of organic molecules in their bodies, brains, and genomes, and the linear genetic text encoded in their DNA molecules, the intensity of the attractive or repulsive force in that world, invisible to you, cannot be an unchanging (absolute) quantity. The attractive force that, within the space-time of the cosmos of hereditary material, “holds together” the material that builds a star, or the celestial bodies of a “Solar System”, or the celestial bodies within galaxies, or the galaxies within clusters of galaxies, or the clusters themselves – is not a force of uniform intensity.

In other words, there are significant differences in the genetic proximity among unicellular living beings, or among the cells that make up a multicellular being, or among members of the same species, or among members of different species, or among genera of beings living on Earth, which is analogous to the significantly different intensity of the force that holds together their hereditary materials, i.e., the material within a star, a “Solar System”, a galaxy, or a cluster of galaxies in the cosmos of hereditary material.
