You know, for instance around Earth, you can think of gravity as forming a kind of a well around Earth, which causes the things that pass near Earth, the moon I would say, which is orbiting on its path, to stay within the vicinity because it falls into that gravity well, metaphorically speaking; and in likewise the same way this astronaut that is fictitiously described by our good mathematics professor takes a journey through curved spacetime.
