Description
Being deeply connected to our understanding of space and time, gravity is the most fundamental interaction which today is best described by General Relativity. In this talk we report on new classical and also quantum tests of the foundations of General Relativity and its implications, and also describe measurements of the gravitational constant which is related to the strength of this interaction.
