Light from distant space-time quasars
is warped passing select galaxies and made visible as if passing through a lens
or traveling around the galaxy because of warped space-time. The expansion of
space that was slowing down yet eventually changed to begin accelerating about
5 billion years ago may have a similar cause. At image credit N.A.S.A. least one would believe
they might because each involves space as an actual substance of some sort or
at least the existence of mass and energy in volume called space behave
somewhat as if space had it's own nature.
It seems reasonable to speculate that
quantum entanglement in mass quantities may be able to slow photons a little
and create an apparent space drag around galaxies. Alternatively quantum
effects of large bodies of mass boost photons a little as they encounter
concentrated fields of mass and ricochet energized.
I wonder if the acceleration of
space-time in the Universe has a related causality to that of galactic lensing. Spacetime phenomena present quite a few puzzles to consider.
