What if gravitational waves were electromagnetic in nature?

Hi @athconnect, thanks for asking this question!

First of all, gravitational waves are not electromagnetic in nature because these waves are not created by the movement of charges. Rather these gravitational waves are disturbances formed in the geometry of spacetime which propagates at the speed of light.

I will consider you going through my previous post for understanding the complete picture of the gravitational waves the link of which is mentioned in this post itself!
