One of the theories of how UFOs are propelled is that they defy the
force of gravity. Some sort of "force" would have to be created to do
that.
In 1986, in a mineshaft in Australia, scientists thought that the
gravity recorded did not follow Newton's inverse square law. If this
were true then they might well have been on the track of a fifth force
which defies gravity.
Scientists from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla,
California, and other locations have tested the theory by measuring
gravity from a submersible moving through 5 kilometers of water along
the California coast. The participating scientists determined that the
experiments recorded the gravitational constant G to an accuracy of 2
parts in 1,000.
No signs of a fifth force were found. However, the experiments were not
able to test for the force over great distances. If a fifth force did
exist and show itself over 1,000 meters, the measurements should have
differed from those several kilometers above the seafloor - a distance
perhaps out of range of a theorized fifth force. No appreciable
variation was found.
