An international team of scientists have completed the first successful test of Albert Einstein’s famous theory of general relativity (GR) near a supermassive black hole, according to a study published in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics.

Using the European Southern Observatory’s (ESO) Very Large Telescope (VLT) in the Atacama Desert, Chile, researchers demonstrated that the theory accurately predicted the motion of a star passing through the extreme gravitational field surrounding Sagittarius A*—the supermassive black hole that is thought to reside 26,000 light-years from Earth at the center of the Milky Way.
