2009 Misel Family Lecture
Using the history of understandings about gravity as a template I talk about how science works. It shows how our understanding is driven forward by the interweaving of threads that arise in observations and in theory building. I stress the importance of seeking consistent interpretations of apparently inconsistent ideas or observations as a key to progress in science.
