If gravity was faster than light we would be able to "see" the gravity from beyond the event horizon. This would make the universe seem heavier than it is, and not lighter. Furthermore there is no such thing as the core of the universe. |
Gravity is just as fast as light (gravitational waves move outwards in the speed of light), so it does seem like there's a hard limit at the speed of light.
