Gravity! From the Big Bang to Black Holes - Paris Diderot

Gravity! From the Big Bang to Black Holes - Paris Diderot:

back in 2013, you asked us to keep you up to date. Our White Paper was extremely successful and the Gravitational Universe was selected as the science theme for ESA's L3 mission. We are now getting close to the launch of the LISA Pathfinder mission, followed by the actual mission concept selection by ESA. More news are coming soon.

In the meantime we would like to point you to an internet course on the Gravitational Universe "Gravity! From the Big Bang to black holes". This 6-week course is conducted by one of the eLISA researchers Pierre Binétruy, with the participation of Nobel Prize winner George Smoot. It presents to a large public with curiosity for the Universe but no mathematical background, the various aspects of the gravitational universe, focusing in the last weeks on gravitational waves and black holes. Highlights of the course will be the celebration of the 100th anniversary of general relativity on November 25, and the launch of the LISA Pathfinder mission.
The course is absolutely free of charge and does not require a scientific background.

Join the 70,000 learners who have already registered for the course by going to http://futurelearn.com/courses/gravity .
The course starts today October 26, 2015. Registration is possible until December 6, 2015. The course is only accessible to registered learners.

Best wishes,
The eLISA Consortium
