   A gelatin sphere in remote space, far from any gravitational field,   
   maintains its spherical shape because it is in an inertial reference   
   frame where there are no forces that can deform it.   
      
   But if the gelatin sphere approaches a planet or a star and falls free,   
   it gets longer, it ovalizes.   
      
   Is this deformation of the gelatin sphere in free fall in a   
   gravitational field due to the action of a force or not?
