EXAMPLES-
Light follows a geodesic, which is why it bends near a massive star.
Satellites in orbit are just following geodesic paths around Earth.
She calculated the geodesic between two points on the warped spacetime near the black hole.

EXAMPLES-
The Standard Model works because it is renormalizable, so its infinities can be tamed.
If a theory of quantum gravity is not renormalizable, it cannot make finite predictions at high energies.
