The gravitational mass of a test particle within a gravity field decreases as inverse of the square of its distance from the source. This is known as classical inverse square law of Newton’s universal gravitation. Although the inertial mass of the test particle remains constant its gravity mass vanishes at infinite distance from the source.
On the other hand if the test particle remains at rest and the source of gravity moves away. Then similarly the gravitational mass of the test particle decreases. Logically, if the source approaches nearer and nearer to the test particle then its gravity mass increases such that at the moment they come in actual physical contact the gravity mass of the test particle becomes infinite, or in other words, its mass is infinitely larger than the mass of the source of gravity. Something is seriously wrong in this analysis, but why needs further investigations.
Nonetheless, invoking fractal dimension, it is reasonable to suggest that gravity mass and consequently gravity itself is a dimension changing central force. Furthermore different fractal dimensions can coexist side by side at infinitesimally near distances closed together. For example, the hydrogen atom of 1 proton and 1 electron shows 2 equally stable fractal dimension of 1/6 relative to the fractal dimension of the quantum vacuum of ½. This defined as a dimensional region where and when the rest masses of any particle are exactly zero.
