La ley de la gravitación universal

The video explores the history of astronomy, starting with ancient civilizations' observations of the sky. It discusses Greek philosophers' contributions, including the geocentric model, and the shift to the heliocentric model by Copernicus. The video highlights Newton's law of universal gravitation, explaining the forces governing celestial bodies. It also covers the role of gravity in orbits and the challenges posed by space debris and satellite management.
