I see. If that&#x27;s true, then light travels through a higher dimension, and this is definitive proof of at least a fourth spatial dimension. Otherwise there would be nothing for the 3d space to ripple through, or for light to travel through.<p>I&#x27;m surprised I haven&#x27;t heard that light travels independent of 3d space compression before. That would also imply that if you enter a black hole with your feet at the bottom, you would see them <i>visibly</i> stretched far away from you (noticeably? I&#x27;m not sure) because light would take longer in the distortion to reach your eyes.
