Abstract

We present here a spectrum of developments and predictions in gravitation theory in recent years which appear to be amongst some of the most exciting directions. These include the spacetime singularities, gravitational collapse final states, and the deep cosmic conundrums that the new results on these issues have revealed. Amongst these are the cosmic censorship and the paradox of predictability in the universe, and the possible emerging implications for a quantum theory of gravity. The likely contact with observations and implications for relativistic astrophysics and black hole physics today are indicated.
