Hi everyone.
I'd like to verify my thoughts about travellig through space using a space curvature.
Imagine you have a spaceship and you want to travel some distance. Your ship launches an object into space that has huge mass and density. It curves space. Now, you enter the curved space and keep moving through it. And as you are traveling through the curved space you should actually travel more distance in less time compared to the ship that is outside of the spacetime curvature but traveling with the same velocity (Lets say that time dilation is not working for a second). Because (if I'm not mistaken) the space around that object with huge mass and density should shrink.
Now here comes my question: Is this working? Am I correct?
And sorry for my english (if something was wrong).
PS: I'm not sure if this is undergrad or just hig scool topic so I picked undergrad.
