The Debt to the Existence of General Relativity

Newton's theory was falsified by a combination of the Newtonian observations plus the existence of general relativity. Realistically, we'd never have even made this observation at all, but for the fact that general relativity was making a different prediction from Newton and led us to go try to make this observation. This is why the fact that the stars moved during the clips went unnoticed by humans for apparently thousands of years.
