Einstein's general relativity theory is questioned but still stands for now
Detailed analysis of the star's orbit near supermassive black hole gives a look into how gravity behaves

Summary:
In the most comprehensive test of general relativity near the monstrous black hole at the center of our galaxy, researchers report that Einstein's theory of general relativity holds up, at least for now.
"Einstein's right, at least for now," said Ghez, a co-lead author of the research. "We can absolutely rule out Newton's law of gravity. Our observations are consistent with Einstein's theory of general relativity. However, his theory is definitely showing vulnerability. It cannot fully explain gravity inside a black hole, and at some point we will need to move beyond Einstein's theory to a more comprehensive theory of gravity that explains what a black hole is."
Even now, scientists still do not know everything about gravity. One of the most mysterious forces in the universe!
