The bending of light around a black hole is a consequence of the curvature of spacetime caused by the immense mass of the black hole, rather than the light itself having mass. According to Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity, massive objects like black holes warp the fabric of spacetime, causing the path of light to curve as it travels through this curved spacetime. To understand this concept, imagine spacetime as a two-dimensional rubber sheet. When a heavy object like a black hole i
