Because light travels in a straight line through the contours of space-time, a light beam will curve where space-time curves, this curving was first measured in 1919.
因为光沿时空走直线,所以光线在时空弯曲的地方会弯曲。这现象在1919年首次被观测到。

The warping associated with the closed timelike curve could cause our slice to twist back on itself, making it impossible to divide all of space-time into distinct moments.
与封闭的时间型曲线相关的这种扭曲会导致我们的切分转回原处,不可能把所有的时空分成各自不同的时刻。

This phenomenon, predicted by Einstein's theory of general relativity, causes light to curve as it flies through space-time that has been dented by the gravity of large bodies of mass.
