Now if somebody could figure out why mass causes gravity other than "just because it's there". My guess is that it's actually a form of displacement. Probably something to do with the nature of photons when they're not shooting around between atoms (one of my crazy ideas, and if true the nature of such would make it that much harder to figure out.) Once science gets this figured out and applied gravitics becomes a field of study... I suppose it would then be possible to create a differential field, and "fall" towards your destination. Such a thing would probably create a refraction bubble generated by something akin to an artificial event horizon. And to top it off, dilation effects on the surface of the bubble would cause red or blueshift of light traversing it. Well, that's my crazy guess. Also note that other particles, etc. would be accelerated by such a field as well. Thus you'd need a good means of shielding, provided you don't want to cook yourself.
