A Natural History Museum spokesperson said: "Evolution theory is accepted as fact by the scientific community, on a level with the
theory of gravitation or the round Earth theory."
Throughout the 20th century, with the development of quantum electrodynamics and Einstein's
theory of gravitation, the physical vacuum became a subject for research.

B|hmer presents readers with a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental ideas behind the geometric
theory of gravitation and spacetime.
They believed it because Mercury wobbles as it moves through space, and Isaac Newton's
theory of gravitation required the existence of some other body to cause the perturbations.
Astronomers had long known that Mercury's perihelion--its point of closest approach to the Sun--shifted slightly in a way that Newton's
theory of gravitation couldn't account for.
By following Einstein's
theory of Gravitation, it's well known that a mass concentration would deform locally the Space-Time and the observed shapes of distant galaxies seen through the concentration would be deflected and distorted.
In the early 1950s, while still teaching at Tehran University, he worked with Albert Einstein on the Unified Field
Theory of Gravitation and Electromagnetism at Princeton's Institute for Advanced Study.
A complementary theory about stellar evolution - the Star Procreation Theory shows how Super-Nova stellar eruptions create and put into motion the planets, explaining the root cause for the Titius-Bode Law of planetary orbital patterns, which is something of an enigma in Sir Isaac Newton's Universal
Theory of Gravitation. The Star Procreation Theory outlines the very slow evolution of the terrestrial planets into gas giant planets, luminous stars and black holes to end their life in a gamma-ray explosion.
