The solar eclipse of May 29, 1919, is notable for its significance in the field of astronomy, particularly because it was used to test Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity. During this total solar eclipse, the Moon passed in front of the Sun, allowing astronomers to observe the bending of light from distant stars as it passed near the Sun's massive gravitational field.
