Einstein's theory of gravity, or general relativity, is in accord with the correspondence principle, which states that the behavior of systems predicted by a new theory should smoothly reduce to those predicted by the older theory in the appropriate limit. This means that in the limit of weak gravitational fields and low velocities, general relativity smoothly reduces to Newton's theory of gravity.
