The principle of equivalence states that that both mass and acceleration distort space-time and are indistinguishable in comparable circumstances. Black holes, the result of gravitational collapse, are singularities with an event horizon that is proportional to their mass.

This is mainly a textmap about general relativity, not special relativity. For someone who has not already learned special relativity, I strongly recommend mastering it first.

Einstein’s theory of general relativity describes all types of relative motion including accelerated motion and the effects of gravity. General relativity encompasses special relativity and classical relativity in situations where acceleration is zero and relative velocity is small compared with the speed of light.

The details of this theory are too mathematically complex for this course, but we'll get an idea of the basic concepts.
