Einstein was always a bright guy, especially compared to me but this was cool news proving his theory about gravity bending space and time, a century after he proposed it. When it was dumbed down to layman’s terms even I understood it, see the article-link. It’s the same explanation used in Dr. Plaitt’s excellent book Bad Astronomy when he gives examples of how space is curved and not really flat.
Now if scientists can use this information to find a way to develop theoretical faster-than-light space travel using gravity as Alan Dean Foster’s KK Drive does or fold space without the side effects of madness in Event Horizon.
