Historical tidbits. 1776: Laplace suggests four mechanisms that could explain secular perturbations of Moon-Earth orbit. One the explanations was a non-instantaneous propagation of gravity, affecting the binary system (abandoned because its speed would be too large to be measurable to explain the effect). .

To help explain how two bodies that are not in contact can exert a force on one another (i.e. gravitational, magnetic or electrostatic) we use the concept of fields. .. Fields are spheres of influence. They are invisible and intangible; they simply demonstrate how strong a characteristic is at a certain distance.. Gravitational Waves. Prediction.
