The new 2022 Big Thinkers Series

THURSDAY 31 MARCH 2022 | 6-7pm BST | 1-2pm EDT | ON-DEMAND   Gravity is the familiar force that keeps our feet firmly on the ground - and explains the orbits of the planets in the solar system and the whole structure of our universe, too. That much we know, but there’s much about gravity that remains a mystery. In this talk, Professor Claudia de Rham will explore how much we actually know about this most fundamental of phenomena - and how much more is left to uncover.
