Questions regarding the bending of light by mass or energy.
General relativity predicts that matter and energy bend spacetime. As light travels through spacetime, it is influenced by other objects and follows a "bent" path. This phenomenon is known as gravitational lensing. It was first observed during the 1919 solar eclipse, by Sir Arthur Eddington, and was accepted as evidence of general relativity.
