STEM October Physics Club

You focus on what looks like a bright star with a tiny blemish. You adjust your telescope, and in a breath of realization, you find that it’s not a star at all, but Jupiter, distant yet luminous. You wonder about the long journey of each photon, reflected from Jupiter’s cloud tops, crossing the cosmic sea to meet your gaze. The answer is something we have never known in classical Newton’s equations. It lies in Einstein’s general relativity. Jupiter large mass causes a curvature in a geometrical shape known as the Curvature of space-time, bending the path those photons follow, so that without you even noticing, Jupiter is subtly changing not just your view of the universe, but also the moment in time you’re experiencing.
