The most outstanding contribution to general relativity in this era came in 1953 (published in 1955 (ref. 1)) in the form of the Raychaudhuri equation. It is in 1960s that the observations began to confront the eupherial theory and thus began exploration of GR as a legitimate physical theory in right earnest. The remarkable discoveries of cosmic microwave background radiation, quasars, rotating (Kerr) black hole and the powerful singularity theorems heralded a new canvas of relativistic astrophysics and cosmology. I would attempt to give a brief account of Indian participation in these exciting times.Keywords

The two defining features of the Einsteinian gravity are that it is self-interactive and it links universally to all particles, including zero-mass particles. In the process of obtaining the Schwarzschild solution for gravitational field of a mass point, we demonstrate how these features are incorporated? We also show, unlike the Newtonian gravity, why gravitational potential in the Schwarzschild solution can have its zero only at infinity and nowhere else, i.e. it is determined absolutely. Further we consider particle orbits to expose certain insightful and subtle points of concept and principle.Keywords

C. V. Vishveshwara (Vishu) is associated to most of us with quasi-normal modes or the ringdown of a black hole. The prediction that his simple calculations made was dramatically verified after 46 years with the discovery of gravitational waves by LIGO, which was almost a year before he breathed his last on 16 January 2017 in Bengaluru. It was, therefore, most fortuitous that he could experience the exhilaration and satisfaction of his contribution when the whole world was cheering and applauding. Vishu will be remembered for a long time not only for his seminal contributions to understanding black holes, but also fondly for the word pictures and the Sydney Harris-like cartoons he created to share with his professional colleagues and the lay public the esoteric consequences of Einstein's general theory of relativity. His talks inspired generations of students to a career in science, and through the activities at the Jawaharlal Nehru Planetarium, Bengaluru and the Bangalore Association for Science Education (BASE) the inspiration lives on.- Light Speed: The Ghostly Aether and the Race to Measure the Speed of Light.
