Nesse colóquio, com o Prof. Moyses Nussenzveig, serão discutidos como o conceito de Gravitação se modificou desde o "ano miraculoso de Newton" e a lei de Gravitação Universal até a Relatividade Geral de Einstein.
Serão apresentados vários dos efeitos da Relatividade Geral já comprovados. Finalmente procurar-se-á responder à questão: onde encontra-se a fronteira do conhecimento atual?

This Stanford Continuing Studies course is the fourth of a six-quarter sequence of classes exploring the essential theoretical foundations of modern physics. The topics covered in this course focus on classical mechanics. Leonard Susskind is the Felix Bloch Professor of Physics at Stanford University.
