This year's program brings two distinguished scientists—Professor Gabriela González and Professor Jorge Pullin— to IUPUI to discuss gravity. We experience gravity in our daily life, and while it was the first fundamental interaction studied, it is the one we know the least about.
This powerful duo will be accompanied by speakers who will describe their experience with gravity from the point of view of its effects in art, a zero-g flight, and the laboratories of the department of physics at IUPUI.
