Gravity ?

Nobody seems to know what Gravity is even Isaac Newton admitted he didn't . Einstein better understood the properties of gravity and what it is but still didn't know what Gravity really is. It seems to 'travel' at the speed of light but as yet a Graviton hasn't been discovered .

My thoughts on the subject are this .
Every atom has a charge and things with a charge tend to clump together they are 'attracted' to each other. When enough matter clumps together it creates a larger electromagnetic field the effects of which can be seen in the sun ,earth ,moon etc and has been named Gravity. We can clearly see the effects of electromagnetic clumping in the sun, earth, moon etc but not in the very small like an atom. We wouldn't say, for example, describe an atom as having 'gravity' however they are the same.
Is this a better understanding of what Gravity is ? Can we go further and say there is a clear link between the very large and the very small because fundamentally they are the same ? Is Gravity simply an Electromagnetic Force which can bend space ?
However for the Gravity (Electromagnetic Force) of the Sun to extend outwards light years, which it clearly does, it would need to make use of another dimension. This extra dimension would account for 'Spooky Action at a Distance', and possibly Dark Matter and Dark Energy.

Anyway enough thinking i've got to go and wash the car. I'll leave it with you ;)
Drop a kilo of feathers and a kilo of lead side by side and see what happens.
I was hoping for a discussion . Think of a planet as a big atom with lots of electromagnetic charge.
Massless parts, sizeless parts, parts that are their own antiparty...

What could possibly be weird about a partless field?
Tons of warpage.
No spacetimeons.
Typical instance of a partless field.
