even if pacetime were barely bent a tiny amount, we could see a prove shoot past Voyager 1 like it was sitting still.

Even a little could see us roam the solar system at will, even if other stars would still be too far away.

Someone tried to explain this to me some years ago by putting a dot "A" on the corner of a piece of paper and a "B" on the diagonal corner and folding the paper so the diagonals touched.

He said you don't travel across the paper.

Uh Huh ...

and like the joke about naking your own man from mud, and God said ... "get your own mud" ... who makes the bend in the paper ?
