On the 29th of May, 1919 the moon eclipsed the sun to allow a thin ray of light from the Hyades star cluster to fall into Sir Arthur Eddington’s telescopes. Through his observations, he proved that light did not travel on straight lines around the sun, but rather on curved ones that deflected light. Eddington's announcement made headlines, catapulting Einstein’s fame in the English-speaking world.

Words by Janna Levin, excerpted from her book in progress.
