Hi:

Microscopic singularity, the source of Einsteinian gravity, being made of photons compressed at the "Big Bang", shares certain qualities of light and other kinds of electromagnetic energy.

In its essence, the Einsteinian universe is unbelievably elegant, with an astounding core simplicity. The whole universe is made of electromagnetic energy in various relationships and densities. These "differences" perceived from different invariant frames of reference, along a linear scale dimension we call "time", defines the reality we understand and feel so "at home" in.

c=f(lambda)where c is the speed of light, f is the frequency of any electromagnetic radiation and Lambda represents the wavelength, is almost as interesting an equation as E=mc squared. The product of f Lambda is a constant, and Lambda is INVERSELY PROPORTIONAL to f, the frequency of the electromagnetic radiation.

So much for light. Now have you ever (carefully) studied this relationship? " Every body (instantaneously- my word inserted for VERY good conceptual reasons...just read on) attracts every other body in the universe with a force directly proportional to the masses of the two bodies, and INVERSELY PROPORTIONAL to the square of the distance between them."

You may note that there is not only an inverse relationship involved, but in the case of gravitation, where the mass of any two bodies is different there is a DIRECT PROPORTION also involved.

In the formula (involving electromagnetic energy) E=hf, E= photon energy, h of course is a proportionality constant- Planck's constant, and f (frequency) and e are DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL.

Now, for "instantaneous" gravitation across the length and breadth of the cosmos...billions of light years. According to Einstein, and as derived from his equations, the frame of reference of the photon is timeless, and the photon universe, be it free energy or microscopic singularity communicates INSTANTLY.

From the frame of photons, the universe, singularity or photons just IS...an eternal matrix. But how about this folks...we, and everything else in a SRT/GR universe are made of photons too!

Best Wishes, and I hope you enjoy your eternal life!
