== The concept behind Eddington’s experiment is flawed ==
−
Eddington measured the angle of a deflected light wave off the coast of West Africa during the 1919 eclipse and confirmed Einstein’s theory of relativity. But . . . for a light wave to produce an angle, the light wave must have been pulled round to Eddingtons line of sight. This proves the image used in comparison was not the image destined for West Africa, but an image already offset, thus increasing the angle.

The error in this experiment is difficult to explain but easy to visualise.
