How does gravity alter the trajectory of light?

All objects fall at the same rate, the spatial effects of gravity are unaffected by mass, so from the scientific perspective there is no reason to assume that photons would behave any differently, in fact they don't. They don't slow down because they have no mass, instead they change frequency, no big deal, that's just how photons roll. You not gonna stop them ballin, nigger.

I posted nigger somewhere else in dis.4chan.org, see if you can find me. If not a nigger will remain un-african-american'd and racism will prevail.

Try to avoid using classical reasoning for describing quantum effects.  This is especially true when you throw in relativity.  It might work for the occasional phenomena, but it is almost certainly wrong in general.

The standard physics definition of mass is "rest mass".  "Relativistic mass" is rarely used these days, as it does not behave in the same way as Newtonian mass, nor does it affect gravity in the same was as Newtonian mass.

God damn it, go back to that one thread you guys were fagging up.  This is a rare thread that actually pertains to the subject of /sci/.
You're going to fag this thread up anyway because you're sand niggers
