Read the excerpt from "A Black Hole Is NOT a Hole" by Carolyn Cinami DeCristofano.

In this way of thinking, the “background” acted more like a flexible mat, or a stretchy knit blanket. This new, blanket-like idea of space meant space could stretch, crunch up, bend, and warp. Moving objects would follow the curves of the blanket, moving along the surface through flat sections as well as distorted ones. This new idea about space changed the way scientists think about gravity.
