There is a "warped side" to our universe:  objects and phenomena, such as black holes and the big bang, that are made from warped space and time.  Computer simulations (numerical relativity) are beginning to revolutionize our understanding of what COULD exist on our universe's warped side; and gravitational-wave observations (LIGO, LISA, ...) will reveal what phenomena actually DO exist there, and how they behave.
