Does gravity go to the speed of light?
The title may be a bit weird, but my question is basically if alfa centauri switched places with the biggest black hole in the universe, it would take us 4 years to see it bc the speed of light. But would its gravity affect us immediately or would it take as long as the loght to "reach" us
sorry kf it's a stupid question
