Scientists try their darnedst to tell what gravity is though - it's either gravitrons or gravity waves or curved space, whatever those things mean.

Well the dictionary tells us what gravity is with Solemnity or dignity of manner. # The natural force of attraction exerted by a celestial body, such as Earth, upon objects at or near its surface, tending to draw them toward the center of the body. # The natural force of attraction between any two massive bodies, which is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. But I would suggest Newton proffered a Law of Gravity and not a theory.
