What’s the source of gravity? (a common physics misconception)

This page features a video explaining a common misunderstanding in physics about the origin of gravity. Contrary to popular belief, gravity is not caused by mass alone but is related to energy and momentum. This concept helps clarify why light, which carries energy and momentum, can be influenced by gravitational fields and bend when passing near massive objects like stars, planets, or black holes.
