Space And Gravity And Stuff...
a: Space ~
b: a giant rubber sheet
What: "Stuff with matter deforms the space around it, making other stuff fall towards it - imagine a giant rubber sheet which is like space. And imagine if you put a ball on it (which is the stuff or matter). The ball with dent the middle of the sheet. So if you put a smaller ball on the sheet, it will roll down the dent to the ball."
