After just two years in orbit, ESA’s GOCE satellite has gathered enough data to map Earth’s gravity with unrivalled precision. Scientists now have access to the most accurate model of the ‘geoid’ ever ...
ALMA reveals that gravity reorients magnetic fields in 17 young clusters, aligning them as gas collapses and accelerating ...
Photos and videos of astronauts on the ISS show them floating around, but saying there's zero gravity isn't fully accurate.
A new study reports conclusive evidence for the breakdown of standard gravity in the low acceleration limit from a verifiable analysis of the orbital motions of long-period, widely separated, binary ...
The Event Horizon Telescope only recently gave us the first images of the environment immediately surrounding a black hole.
Earth and other terrestrial planets probably use their gravitational forces to tear apart asteroids ― but this creates more streams of smaller asteroids. When you purchase through links on our site, ...
The claim: Earth isn't curved or moving; air pressure couldn't exist 'without a container' Some social media users are sharing a meme that claims to present evidence that Earth is flat instead of ...
On March 17, 2002, the German-US satellite duo GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment) were launched to map the global gravitational field with unprecedented precision. After all, the mission ...
You may have seen videos of astronauts jumping on the moon. Their movements appear bouncier and lighter than how we move on Earth, and this is thanks to gravity. Gravity is "the force by which a ...
