- As per the general theory of relativity, a large gravitational source will bend the space around it. When a photon passes through this gravitational field it will lose energy.
- This will shift the path causing a deflection.
- The amount of deflection caused will be given by,
Here G is the universal gravitational constant, M is the mass of the source, R is its radius, and c is the speed of light.
