As part of my current and previous NSF grants,1 I put together two different outreach projects, which are linked below. The first on visualizations of spacetime curvature is work that generalizes some research I performed during my PhD, which is also summarized in the post here. The second is writings about gravity that mix creative works with pedagogical explanations. The aims of these two works are explained in more detail on the respective pages.
