Abstract
General Relativity (GR), developed over 110 years ago, has successfully passed numerous astronomical tests. However, most of these tests have tested GR in the weak gravitational field approximation. Astronomers believe that stellar-mass black holes exist in binary systems, as well as supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies. These astronomical objects offer the opportunity to test GR predictions not only in the weak gravitational field limit, but also in the strong gravitational field limit. Astronomical observations of astrophysical black holes also provide constraints on the parameters of alternative theories of gravity.
