Just your average commuter enjoying some light reading while a massive star casually warps spacetime around them. Einstein predicted this in 1915, but failed to mention how it would improve reading lamp efficiency. The sun's gravitational field is bending the light from the streetlamp directly onto the book—nature's own targeted reading light. Saves on electricity bills and demonstrates general relativity simultaneously. Talk about multitasking.
