I'll see if I can find a link to a website about it...

http://csep10.phys.utk.edu/astr162/l...y/gravity.html

that's the site, but this pretty much sums it up...

The electromagnetic field can have waves in it that carry energy and that we call light. Likewise, the gravitational field can have waves that carry energy and are called gravitational waves. These may be thought of as ripples in the curvature of spacetime that travel at the speed of light.
