Gravitational Potential
https://schema.space/metasat/gravitationalPotential
Description: In classical mechanics, the gravitational potential at a location is equal to the work (energy transferred) per unit mass that would be needed to move an object to that location from a fixed reference location. It is analogous to the electric potential with mass playing the role of charge (source)
