The fog had fallen, and this spiders web had fallen prey to its' dewy remnants...
Sagging under the weight, the web reveals gravity in its glory: That parabolic shape we've come to know from the many things we throw as children. Gravity appears to compress time (as well as space, but for now...). As an object drops, it accelerates, meaning that it covers the same distance in progressively less time. Extending this, one would see an absolute - a limit - of a great distance over practically no time, say 186,000 miles or 299,000 kilometres every second - the apparent speed limit of the universe (though light travels a minimum of this speed in a vaccuum, increasingly "meandering" along the way at higher energies to waste time) . Of course, in order to get a hunk of matter to accelerate to such speeds, it would require a massive gravity source with a minimum physical size; say a black hole with all the contents of the universe stuffed into it... P.S.: I believe that the speed of light is a variable related to the size of the universe - as the universe expands, the speed of light stays the same in terms of distance over time, but one mile now is much bigger than it used to be. The concept of relative space (among others) might seem silly, but it might help to answer the question "If matter cannot be created or destroyed, then how did it get here?" In very simple terms: THERE WAS NOTHING TO CREATE !! LIFE TOUR: THEM LAST 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 NEXT
