Event Details
On November 25, 1915, Albert Einstein presented his field equations for General Relativity. He described gravity not as a force, but as the curvature of spacetime caused by mass and energy.
It predicted phenomena like black holes, gravitational lensing, and the expansion of the universe, and remains the current description of gravitation in modern physics.
