I describe how the dynamics of gravity can be similarly understood by suitable thought experiments in a local Rindler frame. This approach puts in proper context several unexplained features of gravity and describes the dynamics of spacetime in a broader setting than in Einstein’s theory.enBlack hole ·HorizonLovelock gravityEntropyBlackhole thermodynamicsRindlerTemperatureAction principleArticle
