I have a question on GR.
To what extent is the rubber sheet analogy correct?
To be more specific, in that analogy, an object with mass M bends the 2-D space (the sheet) into a third dimension (the sheet goes downward). Does this imply that in out universe, an object with mass bends the spacetime into another extra dimension? Sorry about the wording of the question...
