  1. Nature of STC? While weighing importance of the discovery of grawaves (short form of gravitational waves) we have to pay attention to the STC also because according to the LIGO people ripples were caused by the in-coming grawaves on the STC. But STC doesn’t seem to be real as per recent evidences noted below.1) Theme of the 5th conference on the nature and ontology of Space-Time (May 2018, Albena, BULGARIA was STC: Real or Imaginary? – http://www.minkowskiinstitute.org/conferences/20182) Contrasting views of John Wheeler and Rainer Weiss. According to a famous quote of John Wheeler, matter tells space how to curve. In short space has to be flexible so that it can be curved by a massive star. On the other hand, Rainer Weiss said (in the interview with the Nobelprize.org) that space is enormously stiff and cannot be squished easily. Such contrasting views of leaders of GR can confuse prospective graduates of physics and public, including heads of funding bodies. It is to be noted that physics community celebrated the year 2005 in the name Einstein himself for the popularization of physics.3) Picture of STC in a typical book of GR. The said picture contains a massive star on a 2D fabric, like trampoline, and warping it down. Actually, use of 2D fabric is illogical because neither we can sense space nor time. In fact, visualization of STC in a book of GR is logically similar to the visualization of a ghost in a horror movie, as I have said in Space Research Today # 195.In view of these points, I think that the discovery of grawaves is still on a shaky footing – though it has been awarded the nobel Physics Prize in 2017.
