In relativistic physics, the warping of space-time refers to the geometry of the universe resulting from the theory of general relativity. This geometry can no longer be described as a flat, three-dimensional Euclidean universe, but rather, as embedded in a type of four-dimensional Minkowski space. As formulated by German American physicist Albert Einstein with contributions from other theoreticians such as Dutch physicist Hendrik Lorentz, relativity is centered on the space-time interdependence. As it affects space and time, the conceptual framework of relativity can be summarized as follows: all observable motion in space is relative. The velocity of light is a universal constant and independent of source or detector velocity. No energy can be transmitted at a velocity greater than that of light (c) which travels at 2.9979 x 108 m/s in a vacuum. Accordingly, the speed of light is often referred...
