My tits have a different perspective. The”view”might be skewed but my belief in gravity remains the same. Her nom. for SCOTUS is a joke!

Does Greta subscribe to the Newtonian view of gravity or the Einsteinian one?

Greta, being in her first semester of her second year of high school, might not yet fully understand Newtonian vs Einsteinian gravity.

Which was my point, she said "understanding and knowing them" and then goes on to list gravity which is a common area of confusion

That's a terrible point. It doesn't matter whether she understands them or not, and she actually doesn't claim to.

Those 'views', are scientific models which form scientific theories. Newton's theory is partially obsolete*. Science progresses.

*with regards to its applicability: Newtonian physics accurately, even perfectly describes motion at speeds far below light speed.

Indeed, I just brought it up because I suspect most people who've not taken a uni lvl physics course think of gravity in a newtonian way

I think I've forgotten most of my high school physics - I do remember being taught both Einsteinian and Newtonian gravity.
