Warped Spacetime, Gravitational Lensing, and Gravitational Waves (Corroborating General Relativity)

The video explores Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity, highlighting its validation through historical and modern observations. It covers the theory's explanation of gravity as spacetime warping, its early confirmation by Eddington's 1919 solar eclipse observation, and its predictions about black holes, gravitational lensing, and gravitational waves. The video also discusses the technological advancements that have allowed us to observe these phenomena, reinforcing the theory's accuracy. Despite its success, the video notes the need to reconcile relativity with quantum physics for a complete understanding of the universe.
