I am reminded of the first Superman film, where the villains are sentenced to constant acceleration to the point that they become a plane. They yet have mass, but it occupies a reduced volume. They are not eliminated, just booted out of the world to some far away place at light speed to re-enter reality when they have slowed down enough.

The ether of space are like conical bosons, all of whose individual spec points of origin are revisited when they have spun to a quantum boundary by diving back into their vortex to recycle through the energy spiral in the perpetual acknowledgement that continued existence requires defining its space. Pop a Bugle in your mouth and think hard. These are very small specs and there are no gravitons in matter. Gravity is just another anomolous accommodation to three dimensional reality, like the expanding of the Universe, or quantum mechanics.

If the conical shape of the bosons that define space are pushed to resemble a flattened deep dinner plate an effective increase in the boson's energy per time and volume is encountered. The space it defines now has a reduced volume. Spatial density to an observer is mutable.

When the effective volume between two objects in space is reduced the tendency is for the objects to appear closer together, but matter subscribes to the rules of our physics and the mass momentum produced by this motion results in the effect of gravity as abserved in falling objects. The distortion of the bosons is the effect of the displacement of the space by the mass. Space wants to be contiguous and consistent in density. The orientation of the bosons is with respect to the centre point of origin of the displacing object. When boson fields from two objects overlap, they produce a sort of cancellation effect, like what happens with two EM waves superimposed 180 degrees out of phase with one another. The net result of the interaction of the boson fields due to their relative orientation is reduced volume, and we construe this as an attractive force.

That is the way I see it.
