I was wondering that consequence of curvature of spacetime caused by an entire galaxy! Can anyone suggest?
Maybe Gravitational Lens effect ?SD das said:I was wondering that consequence of curvature of spacetime caused by an entire galaxy! Can anyone suggest?
Well, as Arman pointed out, gravitational lensing is one consquence. Another is that galaxies move toward each other if they are close enough for the curvature (aka gravity) to overcome dark energy.SD das said:I was wondering that consequence of curvature of spacetime caused by an entire galaxy!

The consequence of curvature of spacetime is the bending and warping of the fabric of space and time due to the presence of massive objects. This phenomenon is described by Einstein's theory of general relativity and has been confirmed through various experiments and observations.
The curvature of spacetime affects the motion of objects by causing them to follow curved paths instead of straight lines. This is because objects tend to move along the shortest possible path in curved spacetime, which is a curved path.
No, the curvature of spacetime cannot be observed directly with our eyes. However, its effects can be observed through various phenomena such as gravitational lensing, the bending of light around massive objects, and the gravitational redshift, the stretching of light waves as they travel through curved spacetime.
The curvature of spacetime is the physical manifestation of gravity. According to Einstein's theory of general relativity, massive objects warp the fabric of spacetime, creating a gravitational field that influences the motion of other objects. This explains the force of gravity between objects without the need for a separate force or particle.
Currently, there is no known way to manipulate or control the curvature of spacetime. However, some theories suggest that advanced civilizations may be able to manipulate spacetime for practical purposes, such as faster-than-light travel. However, these ideas are purely speculative and have not been proven.
