"The Fundamental Structure of Space-Time"

The Fundamental Structure of Space-Time refers to the concept that space and time are interconnected, forming a four-dimensional framework. In this view, instead of treating space (the three dimensions we move through) and time (the progression of events) as separate entities, they are woven together. This idea, largely developed by Albert Einstein in his theory of General Relativity, suggests that massive objects like planets and stars warp the fabric of space-time, influencing the movement of objects and the flow of time itself. Essentially, gravity is not just a force, but a curvature of space-time created by mass.
