摘要：
Gravitation, the universal attractive force, acts upon all matter (and radiation) relentlessly. Left to itself, gravity would pull everything together, and the Universe would be nothing but a gigantic black hole. Nature throws almost every bit of physics–rotation, magnetic fleld, heat, quantum effects and so on, at gravity to escape such a fate. In this series of articles, we shall explore systems where the eternal pull of gravity has been held off by one or another such means. © 2017, Indian Academy of Sciences.
