A large body like the Earth warps space time in its vicinity. This explains the appearance of gravity from the body.
But why does a mass bend space time? What is the connection. What is the thing that mass has that makes space time want to warp around it?
There must be some communication between the two. Somehow a mass says "here I am" and space time reacts. If I have a ball the size if Earth made of lead and one made if marshmallows how does space time know to warp more around the ball of lead ?
