The sun as you see is as it was 8 minutes ago, So suddenly if we could some how manage to push the sun farther away. Then would we still continue to orbit sun for the next 8minutes in the same path without having a feel of changed gravitational field? This probably seems to be possible, reason as why I feel so is even force of gravity can't reach us faster than speed of light. OR if we go by Einstein's model of gravity Curvature of space, then we should be in a different path of curvature instantaneously, we should have feel of changed gravity.
