A 2006 physics workshop - 'Confronting Gravity: A Workshop to Explore Fundamental Questions in Physics and Cosmology' - that Jeffrey Epstein funded and hosted in St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands, 14-16 March 2006, co-organised with Case Western Reserve University's cosmology centre and coordinated by Lawrence Krauss. 22 physicists attended, including Stephen Hawking and Nobel laureates 't Hooft, Gross and Wilczek. The programme was mainstream gravitation and cosmology - gravitational waves, black holes, string theory - NOT anti-gravity or propulsion. Later reported as part of Epstein's effort to build scientific prestige and rebuild his image.
