Suppose we do not have yet General Relativity conclusions (like, Schwarzschild Gemetry and Weak Field Approximation) , but rather, just Minkowski space-time, newtonian gravity, principle of equivalence and special relativity on accelerated frames (i.e. special relativity on non-inertial frames).
First, we have then the Minkowski spacetime without any gravitational influence:
ds2=−c2dt2+dx2+dy2+dz2≡η(Far−from−Gravitational−field)μνdxμdxν
Secondly we then have a spacetime, which descrives the effects of Newtonian Gravity:
ds2=−(1+2Φ(x′,y′,z′)c2)c2dt2+(1−2Φ(x′,y′,z′)c2)(dx′2+dy′2+dz′2)≡g(Under−the−Gravitational−Field−near−Earth′s−Surface)μνdx′μdx′ν
Now, is it possible to say that the spacetime which describes Newtoninan Gravity is obtained by just a coordinate transformation between an inertial frame to an non-inertial frame (Much like from Minkowski spacetime to Rindler Spacetime)? I.e. is the Newtonian Gravity just another effect of a "accelerated reference frame" (then here we see the principle of equivalence)? :
g(Under−the−Gravitational−Field−near−Earth′s−Surface)μν=∂xα∂x′μ∂xβ∂x′νη(Far−from−Gravitational−field)αβ
