Einstein's theory comes wrapped up with a bow: Astronomers spot star 'wobbling' around black hole
Phys.org • 11/28/2025 – 12/14/2025
Summary
Astronomers have observed a star exhibiting a "wobble" around a black hole, providing evidence for the Lense-Thirring effect, which supports Einstein's theory of general relativity regarding the dragging of spacetime. This finding is reported by Phys.org, highlighting a significant cosmic confirmation of a century-old theory.
