100 years of the first experimental test of General Relativity [CL]

Einsteins general theory of relativity is one of the most important accomplishments in the history of science. Its experimental verification a century ago is therefore an essential milestone that is worth celebrating in full. We reassess the importance of one of the two expeditions that made these measurements possible, a story that involves a sense of adventure and scientific ingenuity in equal measure.
