Einstein believed that space and time were the ingredients to what explains how gravity works. This is better known as " The theory of relativity " Space being 3 dimensional and time being 1 dimensional creates a 4th dimension called " space time" think of space time as the surface of a trampoline. If you stand on a trampoline and put a ball a few inches from your feet the ball will roll towards you. Gravity works the same way with planets, moons ,and stars sitting with in the fabric of space time.

Actually einstein proposed we think of space and time as the same thing, that's why refer to it as "space time"

Think of time as just another dimension.
