Gravity: What’s the big attraction?

Institute of Astronomy Public Observing Evening, Cambridge (12/01/2011)
Cambridge Astronomical Association and Hampshire Astronomical Group combined event (21/04/2011)

Talks for a general audience covering the concepts of gravity, from the Newtonian interpretation to an introduction to General Relativity and black holes. I also look at some of the more exotic effects of gravity and how gravity powers some of the most extreme phenomena in the Universe.
