Describe gravity according to Einstein's theory. 

Einstein's theory states gravity is actually the curvature of space around the mass of an object. 

As a lighter object (like a planet) approaches a heavier object (like the Sun) in space, the lighter object follows the lines of curved space, which draws it near the heavier object.
