Isn't everything in a constant freefall, but space is curved by an objects mass, so the freefall is curved by the space? The line it follows it straight but the actual space is curved. That's how I have always understood it, but I'm second guessing myself after doing a bit of reading lol.

Yes, you're right.

...have you looked at any books introducing quantum mechanics and similar topics? I particularly recommend In Search of Schrodinger's Cat by John Gribbin.

 

 

 Yes thats a very good book. Have you read the "sequel" called In Search of Schrodinger's Kittens? I haven't, just wanted to know if it was any good.

I also recommend The Elegant Universe by Brian Greene. Its a book on relativity, QM and (mainly) String Theory. Also a must read is QED (Quantum Electrodynamics) by Richard Feynman (genius).

@Highwaystar

Stephen Hawking isn't the best explainer out there lol. Brian Greene and especially Richard Feynman make more sense.
