What the hell was the Mavity thing about? How could they have known Newton misheard them like that?

They altered time so Newton discovered "Mavity" instead of "Gravity". How The Doctor still knew it as gravity is interesting, but any human would only know it as mavity.

Donna said mavity first and the doctor caught on

The Doctor actually says mavity first, talking about how they could be stuck in a "mavity well" to explain the lack of stars.

Donna actually says mavity before that, when she is explaining the good things about the ship they are on, a bit after they first crash on the ship.

Really? I must've missed that! I love subtle things like that, hah.
