Anyway, if we are sitting at the rock bottom of the deepest gravity well in the universe, shouldn't all other galaxies have their apparent shapes bent and distorted when their light fell into our gravity well? Surely we could never see symmetrical and undistorted galaxies in the sky as seen from the Earth?
M74, a symmetrical galaxy. Surely symmetrical-looking galaxies like M74 are impossible, if we are sitting at the bottom of the deepest gravity well of the universe?
Bottom of a well Things do look different from the bottom of a well!
