Relativity advances
The General Theory of Relativity has not yet failed in scientific experiments. The latter, moreover, has been more precise than all the previous ones and, like the previous ones, has given good results.
Experiments are performed with large mass stars, planets and stars in general, which have the ability to worsen the path of light according to the General Theory of Relativity. In short, space is deformed around large masses and the rays of light do not spread in a straight line as they pass near them.
In the last experiment they have seen this effect in a two-pulse system. Pulsars are very appropriate because they are very small, only one point in space -- mathematical equations are easier for a point than for a spherical star -- and they regularly emit light (or radiation), which facilitates much analysis. The two-pulse system has made measurements of high precision. And physicists have proven that what relativity predicts is accomplished with great precision.
