Why is speed of gravity the same as the speed of light, can anyone explain in simple terms?

    Don't think of it as the speed of light. Think of it as a maximum speed limit in our universe. Some things just happen to move as fast as possible. That would be light. And that would be gravitational fields. And electromagnetic radiation in general etc. The good question, though, is why these things do move as fast as possible. – Steeven Dec 31 '22 at 11:19
