Historical Origins
The 1960's and early 1970's was a period of rapid development for the classical theory of general relativity. Stimulated by the experimental discoveries of quasars, pulsars and the cosmic microwave background, attention turned to the problem of the gravitational collapse of stars and more massive beodies and to the problem of the big bang.
