The '''gravity family''' tempers out [[graviton]], the 5-limit comma 129140163/128000000 = {{monzo| -13 17 -6 }}. The graviton equals (81/80)<sup>4</sup>/(25/24), so that four 81/80 commas come to a classic chromatic semitone. The generator of gravity temperament is a grave fifth of [[~]][[40/27]], and hence the name. It is part of the [[syntonic-chromatic equivalence continuum]], whereby (81/80)<sup>''k''</sup> = 25/24.

Full 7-limit extensions of gravity include marvo (65d &amp; 72), zarvo (65 &amp; 72), gravid (58 &amp; 65), and harry (58 &amp; 72), all considered below. A notable subgroup extension is larry.

There is also an unnamed 58 & 65d extension by tempering [[176/175]] to extend larry to include prime 7 and tempering [[847/845]] to extend it to the 13-limit, with an S-expression-based comma list of {[[5120/5103|S8/S9]], [[8019/8000|S9/10]], [[4000/3993|S10/11]], ([[847/845|S11/S13]],) [[144/143|S12]]}.

Harry adds the [[breedsma]], 2401/2400, and the [[cataharry comma]], 19683/19600, to the set of commas, and may be described as the 58 &amp; 72 temperament. The [[period]] is half an [[octave]], and the generator ~21/20, with generator tunings of [[130edo|9\130]] or [[202edo|14\202]] being good choices. [[Mos]] of size 14, 16, 30, 44 or 58 are among the scale choices.

It becomes much more interesting as we move to the 11-limit, where we can add [[243/242]], [[441/440]] and [[540/539]] to the set of commas. 9\130 and especially 14\202 still make for good tuning choices, and the octave part of the wedgie is {{multival| 12 34 20 30 … }}.

Similar comments apply to the 13-limit, where we can add [[351/350]], [[364/363]], and [[729/728]] to the commas, with {{multival| 12 34 20 30 52 … }} as the octave wedgie. 130edo is again a good tuning choice, but even better might be tuning the harmonic 7 justly, which can be done via a generator of 83.1174 [[cent]]s. 72 notes of harry gives plenty of room even for the 13-limit harmonies.
