Mr. Bessler's power source

I believe you answered your own question when you pointed out that gravity was everywhere at the same time. If one was able to remove Earth and the solar system's gravitational pull one would still be under the gravitational pull of the galaxy. Ditto by removing the galaxy, one would still be under the pull from the remaining galaxies and so on. Only with the removal of all the matter of the universe is there a chance that gravity wouldn't exist, which would make it difficult for me being able to write this response as I also wouldn't exist, which I am going to assume I do.

But what does the existence of gravity mean? It means that gravity is pulling on me in some direction and as a result I am in continual acceleration in that direction wheather Earth or some other object was in the way or not. With Earth in the way I would experience that acceleration as weight.

My point is that regardless of where one is in the universe, IMO one would be pulled to towards another point in the universe other than the place where on is starting from. Even with the passage of time with the matter of the universe changing position, one would still find one is being pulled from one positon to another with only a very small chance of ever resting at the original starting point. This means to be caused to return to the original starting point means energy would need be expended to achieve this state, the energy equal to the gravitational pull that caused the change in position to start with.

All of this just to state again gravity is conservative. I don't know what Bessler found except in most sincere imagination he thought he had found something.
