Einstein was right: space and time bend
Ninety years after he expounded his famous theory, a $700m Nasa probe has proved that the universe behaves as he said. Now the race is on to show that the other half of relativity also works

Under his name in the Oxford English Dictionary is the simple definition: genius. Yet for decades physicists have been asking the question: did Albert Einstein get it wrong? After half a century, seven cancellations and $700m, a mission to test his theory about the universe has finally confirmed that the man was a mastermind - or at least half proved it.
The early results from Gravity Probe B, one of Nasa's most complicated satellites, confirmed yesterday 'to a precision of better than 1 per cent' the assertion Einstein made 90 years ago - that an object such as the Earth does indeed distort the fabric of space and time.

I agree with Aliensun somewhat.
I wouldn't get too extravagant and say that there's a connection between UfOs and a simulated reality. Instead I would say that this simulated reality has UFO operators that can bend space - time and manipulate matter within it. We just haven't figured it out yet.

its not breaking any laws, gravity from gravitons don't exist. you can use magnitized guidance prepulsion and do what ufos do.
scientists are just scraping the suface of understanding magnetism
I'v been saying this for years and i will continue to say it. Magnetism is gravity, there is no such thing in einsteins theory where gravitons fit.
Nore does the whole * mass = Gravity* BS really make sense at all.
Take black matter and energy. It's everywhere. Where's the gravity from it being all around us? Oh wait. Cuz mass dosn't = gravity
Ossilation and the leaking of energy + carrying capacity for charges via magnetc pull, push and neutrality from the weak strong and neutral force = gravity. Derp.
In physics, gravitational waves are ripples in the curvature of spacetime that propagate as a wave, travelling outward from the source. Predicted in 1916[1][2] by Albert Einstein to exist on the basis of his theory of general relativity,[3][4] gravitational waves theoretically transport energy as gravitational radiation. Sources of detectable gravitational waves could possibly include binary star systems composed of white dwarfs, neutron stars, or black holes. The existence of gravitational waves is a possible consequence of the Lorentz invariance of general relativity since it brings the concept of a limiting speed of propagation of the physical interactions with it. Gravitational waves cannot exist in the Newtonian theory of gravitation, in which physical interactions propagate at infinite speed.
Although gravitational radiation has not been directly detected, there is indirect evidence for its existence.[5] For example, the 1993 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded for measurements of the Hulse–Taylor binary system that suggests gravitational waves are more than mathematical anomalies. Various gravitational wave detectors exist and on 17 March 2014, astronomers at the Harvard–Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics claimed that they had detected and produced "the first direct image of gravitational waves across the primordial sky" within the cosmic microwave background, providing strong evidence for inflation and the Big Bang.[6][7][8][9][5] Peer review will be needed before there can be any scientific consensus about these new findings.[10][11] On 19 June 2014, lowered confidence in confirming the cosmic inflation findings was reported;[12][13][14] on 19 September 2014, a further reduction in confidence was reported[15][16] and, on 30 January 2015, even less confidence yet was reported.[17][18]
I do not know (and I doubt) whether this aspect of gravitational theory (that electromagnetic fields produce gravitational fields) has been directly tested by experiment. The difficulty is that the gravitational field produced by a typical electromagnetic field you can produce in a laboratory is predicted to be very, very weak. A better place to look for gravitational effects due to electromagnetic fields would be in astrophysical objects carrying a significant net electric charge.
