minus-squaregandalf_der_12te@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up7·2 months agoThank you, finally somebody asks. Also, other important question: What are the differential equations that describe how the Gravity Field propagates through space? In other words, at what speed does gravity propagate?
minus-squareoffspec@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up16·2 months agoI’m relatively certain we’ve established that gravity travels at the speed of light

A WITCH!
