Einstein's theory of gravity—general relativity—has been very successful for more than a century. However, it has theoretical shortcomings. This is not surprising: the theory predicts its own failure at spacetime singularities inside black holes—and the Big Bang itself.

Unlike physical theories describing the other three fundamental forces in physics—the electromagnetic and the strong and weak nuclear interactions—the has only been tested in weak .

Deviations of gravity from are by no means excluded nor tested everywhere in the universe. And, according to theoretical physicists, deviation must happen.
