Massive objects distort their surrounding space-time fabric, creating a gravitational field. Smaller objects are thereby affected by this curvature and orbit the large object.

But Einstein had a new problem to overcome. As he studied and marveled at the inner-workings of our world, he saw a grand design behind it and wanted to find the ultimate theory that made it all work. This would require the unification of the two main forces: gravity and electromagnetism (the strong and weak nuclear forces weren’t known yet at this time). What made this task so difficult is that when compared to electromagnetism, gravity is extraordinarily weak. In fact, electromagnetism is hundreds of billions of times stronger than gravity.

As an example, let’s suppose an object is dropped from the top of a very tall building. If gravity was a strong force, it should cause the object to go crashing through the sidewalk and down towards the planet’s core. However, we know that this does not happen. The reason is because everything is made up of tiny atoms, and each atom has negatively charged electrons surrounding it. When the electrons from the falling object come near the electrons of the sidewalk, they repel each other with enough force to overpower the pull of the entire Earth’s gravity.10 Another way of explaining it is when you pick up an object, such as a piece of paper, the muscles in your arm are actually resisting Earth’s entire gravitational pull. If gravity were stronger, you would not be able to lift even that simple sheet of paper (not to mention you would probably be flattened to the ground as well).

Gravity likes to work on large objects—and heavier objects have greater gravitational pulls. However, when entering the tiny world of atoms, physicists have found that gravity seems to be irrelevant. All of the cherished beliefs of Einstein’s general relativity seem to break down into chaotic disorder when things get very, very tiny. In order to explain the workings of sub-atomic particles, the field of quantum mechanics was developed.
