High Energy Photon/Curved Space Limit??

Energy curves space.

The smaller the wavelength of a photon, the higher its energy.

With regards to a high energy photon,

Could there be an energy threshold for a photon at which its high energy could curve space to such an extent that the photon could be put orbiting the very space that its own high energy curved?

Don't you think that, before we go to that extreme, that we must first show the "proof of principle" experiment that the energy from a photon can actually cause space to curve? Don't you want to crawl first before you actually run the sprints in the Olympics?

Zz.
 


Na, it is too much fun coming up with such ideas!
 


physics should not be fun, it should be consistent and supportable. Otherwise you are just making a fairytale story (science fiction).
