Book presentation 'The Beauty of Falling"
- ARTIS-Planetarium
Renowd astrophysicist Claudia de Rham presents her new book on the mystery and beauty of gravity.
It is a fundamental force of the universe, but also still a mystery: what actually is gravity? Come explore this question with author and scientist Claudia de Rham,
The Beauty of Falling
In her book "The Beauty of Falling" Claudia de Rham takes us from high above Canadian waterfalls to deep under the Indian ocean, on the shoulders of giants like Einstein and Newton, and to personal tragedy, ending with a groundbreaking discovery about a force underlying our known universe. There will be a reading from the book, a spaceflight, and afterwards you can have your book signed by the author herself! Please note the whole program will be in English.
This event is co-organised with the GRAPPA Center of Excellence in Gravitation and Astroparticle Physics at the University of Amsterdam.
