Light on Dark Matter with Weak Gravitational Lensing
... In the beginning of the twentieth century, A. Einstein predicted that massive bodies could be seen as gravitational lenses that bend the path of light rays by creating a local curvature in space-time. One of the first confirmations of Einstein’s new theory was the observation during the 1919 eclipse ...
