Default What energy in gravitational field?

How can the gravitational field have an energy?


The gravitational stress-energy (energy-momentum) tensor in General
Relativity is exactly zero. Any local gravitational field in freefall
becomes Minkowski space.

Isn't energy what
CREATES the gravitational field?


Weyl tensor. Idiot.
