Einsteins general theory of relativity is one of the most important accomplishments in the history of science. Its experimental verification a century ago is therefore an essential milestone that is worth celebrating in full. We reassess the importance of one of the two expeditions that made these measurements possible, a story that involves a sense of adventure and scientific ingenuity in equal measure.

    For ModMax black holes, Shapiro time delay and gravitational redshift are identical for both photon polarizations, while Sagnac and kinematic shifts distinguish them; S2 precession bounds e^-gamma (Q/2M)^2 <= 0.135.
