http://www.fourmilab.ch/gravitation This site contains documents and interactive Java applets which explore aspects of both Newtons theory of universal gravitation and Einsteins general relativity. Try an experiment that illustrates the gravitational attraction between two objects or use a Java applet to understand how orbits work in strongly curved space-time. The science experiment reveals the gravitational attraction between objects less than a kilogram in mass.
