We have known since the 50s that gravity bends light by observing the apparent change of position of stars near the sun during an eclipse. The suns gravity bent the light from the stars making them appear to have moved. Light and space/time are inseparable. If you bend one, you bend the other. If you can bend it you can compress it. Therefore, our scientists have known since the 50s that gravity can compress space. And unless those scientests were a lot dumber than I am, they also knew that effective, faster-than-light travel is possible if you can generate a strong gravity field. A hundred years ago nobody would have believed that we could create lighting. Today we can easily create lighting. If our government didn’t confiscate thousands of patents a year under the name of national security, we would already have the gravity machine in public domain.
