Why are "spacetime" diagrams drawn downside up?
and upside down

If we're falling through the void, shouldn't our paths point downwards.

which way is downwards?

It's much easier then to visualize our galaxy going down the plug hole.

wher's the plughole?

By the way, why don't the stars go around the galaxy at the right speed?

and why does the sea not going further than the beach
