Re: Only empty space?
So that book that said gravity is the expansion of matter toward other matter, for examlpe, the Earth toward a "falling" ball, was just joshing me then? Or do I have something confused?
Anyone else ready to say they are "star struck" from all this space talk?

Re: Only empty space?
Actually, it was called Time Travel in Einstein's Universe by Richard Gott. I do not recall if the author supported the idea; I only remember him refering to it as something Einstein proposed as a possible explanation to gravity, and which was loosely supported by the evidence that the Universe is expanding.
You see, I always thought the Universe was expanding because everything inside of it was expanding, right down to the atom. And that when each of gazillions of atoms expand a little, it makes a big expansion. Guess I was wrong?
