How does the theory deal with the light potentially having to go faster 
than the speed of light (for example when the photons are aimed straight 
at the centre of a massive object from afar)? If light always goes at 
"c" relative to the local space, and the space is getting distorted, 
this would appear to make the light go faster than "c" no?
