Gravitational Waves Explained https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GbWfNHtHRg Mass and Energy (Energy-momentum) warp spacetime creating a gravitational field. Whereas accelerating mass and energy, such as orbiting black holes, neutron stars, or you and me with locked arms spinning, creates ripples in spacetime--gravitational waves.
