That would be relevant is the Le Sage model could work. It can't. Gravitational lensing demonstrates that space-tine is curved in the vicinity of any mass - you need a lot of mass to get an observable curvature, The first big test of that prediction was made during the 1919 eclipse of the sun. https://earthsky.org/human-world/may-29-1919-solar-eclipse-einstein-relativity/ There have been plenty of others since then. > Same limits apply > > It is simple.
