Original Message
If a star explodes, the radiation waves (X, gamma, etc.) would reach Earth at the speed of light (assume a constant "c" vakue).
But what about gravity? Gravitational waves weren't included in Einstein body of work.
Just recently, some gravitational waves were sensed, but no speed has been measured yet.
Are the gravity effects instantaneous?
