I am not sure what it was called, but when Einstein (I think) discovered
that becasue of the sun's big mass, its gravity bends light. So we can
actually see a star that is almost behind the sun. Well, is it possible to
project a ray of light, and apply some type of magnet near/next to the
ray(s) and actually bend the light?
