What Does GR Stand For?

GR stands for General Relativity

General Relativity (GR) is a fundamental theory in physics formulated by Albert Einstein in 1915, describing the gravitational interaction as a curvature of spacetime caused by mass and energy. It revolutionized the understanding of gravity, predicting phenomena such as the bending of light around massive objects and the expansion of the universe. GR has been confirmed through numerous experiments and observations, making it a cornerstone of modern theoretical physics.
