An eclipse proved Alberts General Theory of Relativity. This made him famous. In 1919 there was a solar eclipse in May. During a solar eclipse, the moon passes in front of the sun and blocks its rays. Even in the middle of the day, it becomes very dark, and the stars come out in the middle of the day.

Albert changed the way we view the universe.
