Just heard on the radio that at a physics conference today they announced that Einstein's prediction that gravity propagates at the speed of light has been proven. Pretty cool stuff [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Well we have formed our whole conception of the universe and the quantum on the basis that he was right, so lets hope we continue to prove him right. [img]smile.gif[/img]

It would really suck if he were wrong
 Altho I would have thought that since "Gravity" is the warping of space time and not a wave function (in Einsteins theories anyway) that the deformation in the fabric would have been instantaneous and not lightspeed propagated....but hey, I have never even taken advanced physics
