What, in Space, is warped?

WHAT, IN SPACE, IS WARPED?

The General Theory of Relativity states that a massive body warps space around it, and light will follow the curved space. This has been proved in a 1919 experiment. The question is. What is being warped? A black hole can be formed from a star with a mass more than 3.2 times the mass of our sun. However, a black hole has an event horizon; the star that it formed from had no such feature. If the total mass of that star ended up in a black hole the force of gravity should be no stronger in the black hole because the mass remains the same. The one thing that these objects have in common is a gravitational field, the thing that makes them different is, size. This suggests to me that in the case of the black hole the gravitational field is what is warped much more severely because of the close proximity of the field to the tiny point of gravity. All light that enters this area follows the compressed gravitational field; it can’t enter the mass of the black hole because light has no mass. This suggests that gravity is the universal conductor of light. Gravity does not propagate in a wave, or partical form; it fans out in a decreasing force field of attraction to mass, much like the static pressure of an atmosphere but without the limitations of the height of an atmosphere. Without gravitational fields light could not advance through space.

    3D space is not warped; 4D space-time is warped. Minkowski invented a 4D space-time continuum by defining the path of a photon to be a straight 4D line. But a photon follows a curved line in 3D space. Suppose you divide the space-time continuum into perfect hyper cubes; they won't fit together unless you warp their edges.

    The value of the space-time continuum is its eficiency in calculating trajectory solutions in complex gravity fields. The warping of space-time is not the cause of gravity, but merely a mathematical description of its effect.

    What is being warped is something called the "metric" of space-time. Just like "the metric system" of units, a metric is how diplacements in space and intervals of time are measured and related to each other. For example, the Pythagorean theorem is a relationship between the lenght of the hypotenus c of a right triangle and its other two sides a and b (c^2=a^2+b^2). That is actually only true in Euclidean (aka "flat") space. Space is said to be "warped" if that relationship is not valid for actual measurements of displacements within it.

    area warps are no longer something to do with area-time and area-time isn`t " in " our bodies, great or in any different case. area-time is the call given to the mixing of area and time. whilst rely got here into being, time additionally got here into being besides, consequently the query of what became there " earlier " doesn`t extremely have any which ability. i think that what you're conversing approximately are Wormholes. Basicly, as I comprehend it ,some variety of " unique rely " could be used to open a rift interior the cloth of area and carry it open .you're able to then be waiting to shuttle great distances to different areas of the Galaxy or the Universe in a fragment of the time that it may generally take. As an extremely uncomplicated analogy, in case you lived in an extremely tall skyscraper and there became a development of similar top beside it and you had to pass right into a room in that different development and you should work out the window of that room because of the fact it became straight away for the time of out of your room, then you certainly`d ought to pass out your door, down the hall to the elevator, shuttle all the way down to floor point, out onto the sidewalk, bypass the line to the different development, into the lobby, into the elevator, as much as the floor the room is on, out of the elevator, down the hall after which into that different room - quite a adventure, eh ?. yet - think which you had an extremely long plank of wood, then you certainly ought to place one fringe of the plank on your windowledge and the different end of the plank on the windowledge of the room which you had to pass into. All you`d ought to do could be to stroll around the interveaning area between the abode windows and into the room. That`d decrease down an poor lot on the adventure. nicely, a Wormhole is something like that.
