Whoops! I said exponential instead of inverse squared. What a crackpot I am.

From my layman perspective, yes the measured gravity would be double it’s original value if measured from the same place.
Gravity is an [edit: inverse squared] function, so it gets weaker at an exponential rate as you move away from the source. But even if it’s a value of 1.0 at Earth’s surface and .02 at some distant point from Earth, doubling Earth’s gravity would double both values to 2.0 and .04, respectively.
I heard the theory that this is a close up spiderweb, and the orbs coming out the sides are either dew droplets or an artifact of light/focus. Rewatching it I can certainly see a resemblance, especially the way the orbs seem to bob up and down along an axis.
I haven’t looking into whether this was proven to be taken by 2 different people at different locations at the same time though. If that was confirmed it would certainly eliminate the spiderweb theory.
Thank you for the clarification. Best way to get the right answer is to post the wrong one.
