You can observe gravity. Therefore there is gravity.

True. Gravity is a scientific law, millennia old. It is the phenomenon of falling, nothing more. Now gravitation - that is a very different matter and only a few centuries old.

In science you always start with an observation, then you develop a hypothesis and then you verify it through experiments and formulate a conclusion.

Spot on. Though what an experiment is, how it works, and what constitutes a valid hypothesis are woefully misunderstood. Scientific illiteracy is ubiquitous.

For example, you think there is an experiment which confirms the hypothesis for how gravitation causes gravity - but there isn’t and never was.

For example, you claim that air gets opaque beyond a certain distance. That claim is not based on any kind of observation or evidence

Of course it is. The question you should be asking is why you don’t want it to be true. The air is opaque (technically translucent; ultimately effectively opaque when there is enough of it) for the same reasons the water is. Why cant you see the shark swimming out in the ocean from underwater near the shore? It’s too far away, and the water is opaque (ultimately/effectively). That’s the reason sharks “see” by their skin - they get much better range that way.

Unfortunately, I already know that you won;t understand what I just explained and will most likely just reply with another video.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with videos (or any media, including text) - but i also prefer discussion and more or less ignore the videos (because they most often just waste time).
