He couldn't stop thinking about the laws of the universe, and was determined to describe how motion and time, and energy and mass, all worked together. Einstein imagined gravity as what happens when objects bend the space and time around them. But this theory couldn't be perceived in the everyday world. To test his hypothesis, Einstein needed to see if the sun's gravity bent the light from a nearby star. And the only way to do that was to photograph a total solar eclipse. This is the story of how scientist Arthur Eddington validated Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity, permanently altering the world's understanding of the universe and beyond. It's a testament to the relationship between nature, science, and the pursuit of knowledge.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Emily Arnold McCully\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0316475521\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780316475525\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Christy Ottaviano Books-Little Brown and Hach\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/29\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Emily Arnold McCully","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46640962928895,"sku":"9780316475525","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_085a35ef-596b-4049-b4a9-cf1551b03583.jpg?v=1740670959","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-eclipse-of-1919-emily-arnold-mccully-9780316475525","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
