Gravity Conclusion
Looking back I what I learned I am very happy. I learned plenty of information that I didn't know before while understanding it. I learned about spacetime and how gravity works. I learned about how curvatures form in space. I learned that there are places in space where there is no gravity at all. I lerned that the cosmic speed limit is the speed of light. I learned about quatum physics and how it works. I learned how time is the 4th dimension according to Einstein. I now understand why we orbit the sun in a circle. And that is just the start. In the beginning I only wanted to know why the mass of planets cause gravity; and now I have learned so much more. Although this is the end of my english blog, I intend to do more research on my topic as time goes on!
Gravity
Today I am finishing how the cosmic speed limit interfeared with Isaac Newton's theory of gravity. If in some instance the sun was to instantly disappear; according to Newton's theory the Earth would go instantly out of its orbit This counters the idea of light being the fastest because in this case the gravity holding Earth in orbit would disappear before sunlight. This is what led Einstein to study gravity.

Gravity
One interesting fact I found out about gravity is that gravity does have speed. It actuallly takes time for gravity to travel. Einstein did not really came into gravity until his theory of the cosmic speed limit was "invented". Isaac Newtons theory of gravity interfeared with Einstein's theory of a cosmic speed limit. I will try to look more in depth to this tommorow.

Gravity
A few days ago, I mentioned that the speed of light is the cosmic speed limit. Some scientists belive this is not true. Some belive that somewhere in space there are particles or atoms that travel faster than light such as tachyons and photons. I found this very interesting even though it does not relate too much with gravity.

Gravity
Today I learned something that has to do a little about gravity. I learned about the speed of light. Nothing can travel faster than the speed of light because light has no mass. I found this interesting and tommorow I will look more into this topic.

Gravity
Today I answered my question of are there certain areas or places without gravity. The answer is yes. There is something in space called dark matter that some scientists say defys gravity or has no gravity at all. I found this very interesting.

Gravity
Today I learned even more information on the string theory. I figured out how and where the the strings are located in the atom. This explains how certian things work.
