Gravitational interaction in quantum theory (81V17) Research exposition (monographs, survey articles) pertaining to relativity and gravitational theory (83-02) Observational and experimental questions in relativity and gravitational theory (83B05) Relativistic gravitational theories other than Einstein's, including asymmetric field theories (83D05) Relativistic cosmology (83F05)
Abstract: I argue that cosmological data from the epoch of primordial inflation is catalyzing the maturation of quantum gravity from speculation into a hard science. I explain why quantum gravitational effects from primordial inflation are observable. I then review what has been done, both theoretically and observationally, and what the future holds. I also discuss what this tells us about quantum gravity.
