[Physics] Does gravity have 'elasticity'? If a solid sun-sized object zooms across space at the speed of light, then abruptly stops, does it take gravity some time to 'settle' around it?

According to GTR, energy density bends spacetime, yes you can have an imaginative sun-sized object moving at c, bending spacetime, bc it is made of photons.
