An ultra-massive black hole has been uncovered using gravitational light bending, something theorized by Albert Einstein in his General Theory of Relativity. A team of astronomers have used a bent ...
According to Einstein's Theory of Gravity, a ray of light is attracted by a clump of matter. As a consequence of "gravitational lensing," the light ray changes its direction from a straight line by a ...
THE idea of detecting the Einstein deflection by measures of two neighbouring stars has occurred to many people, and Prof. C. V. Raman writes to suggest that the apparent distance of the two ...

Even the biggest telescopes on Earth can't come close to resolving the nearest known Earth-like exoplanet to us, Proxima b. If we ever want to take pictures of a distant world like this, we need to ...
The other day I got bored and noticed this weird thing happened when I held my finger up to my eye, so I had to science it and figure it out! Let me know if you try these light-bending experiments too ...
DURING a total eclipse of the sun there will be, as I suppose, an increase of density of the air at the central portion of the shadow. If we imagine the normal atmosphere removed, we are left with a ...
