Gravity, does it have speed?

A more interesting question is, Why does the effect of gravity propigate at the speed of light?

Is it that light is a wave travelling on the medium of space, therefore showing the speed limit of space itself, a limit to how fast space can ripple or vibrate out. Space can then only propogate effects at the same limited speed. This would explain why everything 'electromagnetic' travels at the speed of space, sorry light :flirt:

The gravitational effect would be felt as space flattened out, this would also suggest that gravity is caused by space warping and not vice versa.

Surely this effect has been proven or observed, is a very interesting question. As all mass has a gravitational force it must be experimentable ?

Excellent work there, thenumbersix.

Remember, you are not a number, you are a free man. ;)

As Grayson has said, well done. This looks suspiciously like the link I posted before Number 6. Proof beyond a shadow of a doubt that Great Minds Think Alike.

By the way, congrats on your promotion to a living being. You'll find that standing queue as a living being a tad different from that of a number.

Keep up the good work.
