Tidal forces are gravitational waves — mentioned by raattgift

There is no question that this stuff is hard (and has been cutting edge for decades) and that it is easy to make mistakes. > give a more accurate explanation (that makese sense to someone who's never taken a GR class) It's hard to know what level of understanding to aim for on HN. There are non-relativist working physicists here who somewhat casually read other areas of physics (and mathematics) here, for example, rather than e.g. physics SE or looking through literature reviews. I'm guessing that you have done GR but probably not much with approximations like GEM, nor looked into the history…
