What should I make next?

JackX while that is a correct awnser photons do have energy and gravity will affect that. there was a experiment that showed how gravity effects photons back in 1919. the amount of gravity force actually applied to the photon its self is very minor while space time being bent making a faster path is much more drastic like in this save. like I said you are correct but gravity does effect photons but just ever so slightly. read into that experiment.

dont you just hate it when reguided photonic lasers get bent into your eye from a dime size black hole

kinda looks bad. looks. but theres some good knowledge

The photons are massless, so they are not affected by gravity conventially. The way this works is because the gravity bends space, and thus, the path of the photons, causing them to bend around massive objects
