Eric believes General Relativity can be explained in a way most people can understand, and this explanation he wishes to have animated
Eric's Explanation from Discord
Rulers and Protractors --> Derivative
Derivative --> Rise over run where run is measured above an implied horizontal
Horizontals form "Penrose Steps" --> Degree of Penroseness is measured by the Riemmann Curvature Tensor.
Curvature Tensor breaks into 6 Pieces, 3 of which are zero. --> Throw away non-zero Weyl Component and rebalance the other two non-zero components.
Set rebalanced remaining two components equal to the matter and energy in the system.
