作为例子,这个球面代表了恒星或其他质量附近的空间是怎样弯曲的-光通过这个扭曲空间所引起的弯曲称为引力透镜效应。
The sphere, for instance, represents how space is bent around a star or other mass - light passing through this warped space bends in an effect called gravitational lensing.
如果把巨大的质量或能量压缩到足够小的空间,那么扭曲就会非常严重,以至没有任何东西,包括光在内,能够逃脱它的引力。
If a large enough mass or energy is crammed into a small enough space that warping becomes so severe that nothing not even light can escape.
而质量,爱因斯坦则表示,它深深地影响着时空,它把时空扭曲了。
And mass, Einstein showed, affects space-time profoundly, by warping it.
