Yeah I get how space is on a curve. They tell you that in like, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th grade science I think? One of those. What I don't get is how empty space which isn't supposed to have anything in it has properties of matter, IE being able to be flexed and warped and pulled like fabric. That doesn't make any sense to me at all. I mean, I get the curve and fabric model, but that doesn't really explain anything but give you a very vague image of the direction gravity flows.
