I mean if space is distorted by Earth I expect to follow a distorted line going though Earth if you are moving in relation to Earth, go straight but straight is through Earth because distorted, but if you're not moving in this distorted space, why still fall towards its center?
intuitively it seems that matter/energy not only distorts but their centers of gravity starts "sucking" the space.
imagine a (weird) drain hole in the middle of a pool of water, it would start sucking water, and everything static in relation to that water would be dragged along into the drain hole. if you have a spherical sieve which stops larger chunks it would be a good model for gravity. it's just...weird, where does the water go?
