Organized by the Astral Sciences in Trans-Regional Asia (ASTRA) Research Group, the High Gravity Talks series aims to foster interdisciplinary dialogue by bringing leading voices to the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science (MPIWG). Each year, ASTRA invites a few distinguished and world-renowned scholars to Berlin to deliver public lectures on topics relevant to the group’s research into Eurasian astral sciences, broadly defined, and to engage with a broader academic and public audience. While organized within the remit of ASTRA, the High Gravity Talks will resonate beyond the group’s immediate focus, creating innovative synergies with other departments and research groups across the MPIWG and attracting a diverse audience of students, academics, and interested members of the public.
