I always thought that the science behind gravitics, jump space,
repulsors, dampers, and all that comes from some unified force theory,
and an ever deeper understanding of that. Thus 'gravitics' is just what
everyone calls it because the first useful result of this new physics
was contragav (and thus air/rafts and flying cars for everyone).
