So, I was reading a book, and I came across a mentioning of Supergravity. What would you guys like to input on this matter of physics?

I assume supergravity is just gravity that is stronger than earths gravity?

I guess so. Everything has a gravitational pull. It's just that the strength of that gravitation pull depends on the size of the object, so "supergravity" will be simply belong to something much larger than Earth.

it depends upon the fact that gravitons exist (which nobody knows but there has to be a theoretical answer for everything these days! :P ). i cant remember exactly but it involves gravitinos as well and something about the related spins between them and fields…
heres the link to it but unless you have an advanced theoretical physics degree i don't think you'll understand half of it….. :L

Most experiments took place in these places. Quite a read, really. You don't need a degree, just a dictionary. and multiple windows open of the different references to the particular read. I would explain, but, WAY to long. Just read it.
