Einstein’s theory of gravity is a cornerstone of modern cosmology. It has been tested and proven correct over and over and is supported by the discovery of countless cosmic phenomena: from gravitational lensing discovered by Arthur Eddington in 1919 and anomalies observed in the orbit of Mercury, to galactic redshifts and gravitational waves. The theory … Read more
