Eddington traveled into the eclipse path to try and prove one of the most consequential ideas of his age: Albert Einstein’s new theory of general relativity. Eddington, a physicist, was one of ...

Eddington found the apparent location of the stars had shifted, just as Einstein predicted. Further proofs of Einstein's theory came with advancing technology through the 1960s and continue in the ...

Arthur Eddington led the expedition to Principe, where his pictures help prove Einstein’s theory. (Credit: Public Domain) Andrew Crommelin was one of the researchers sent to observe the eclipse.

Sir Arthur Eddington at Cambridge University organised the eclipse trip to try and test Einstein's Theory of Relativity. During the event, two heliostats with moveable mirrors were used to direct ...

On May 29, 1919, a total solar eclipse helped to prove Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity. Einstein's theory ...
