The idea would be to stare at a distant star and report instances when its light had been bent by the gravity of a planet passing in front of it.

这一方法指的是将目光集中在恒星上，当行星从恒星前经过时产生的引力将会使光线弯曲，这时就会得到关于详细情况的报告。

There is, however, scope for new laws of gravity that affect light and heavy objects differently, or involve a modification of the concept of inertia.

ECONOMIST: A space oddity

Einstein's launch into fame, which occurred when measurements made during a 1919 eclipse confirmed his prediction of how much gravity bends light, coincided with, and contributed to, the birth of a new celebrity age.
