A group of Salado 6th graders got to complete the ultimate science project by having their projects fly in a zero-gravity aircraft.

Just over a week ago, European physicists announced they had measured the strength of gravity on the smallest scale ever. In a clever tabletop experiment, researchers at Leiden University in the ...

A gene called IBSH1 helped spreading earthmoss thrive at high gravity, hinting at how plants adapted to photosynthesize on land.

Astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) are tasked with conducting hundreds of experiments, but perhaps none are as pretty as recent efforts to shape fire in zero gravity ...

A handful of leftfield scientists have been trying to harness the power of gravity. Welcome to the world of Project Greenglow, writes Nic Young. In science there exists a uniquely potent ...

Science Space Da Vinci's Forgotten Experiments Nearly Decoded Gravity Centuries Ago Before Galileo, Newton and Einstein, it seems to be Leonardo da Vinci who started piecing together the gravity ...

A new gravity sensor used atoms’ weird quantum behavior to peer underground Such devices promise to be more accurate and stable in the long run than other gravity probes ...

In the April 1981 issue of Popular Science, we explored the many initiatives and techniques used in the hunt for gravity waves.

Space.com shadowed a group of students from the University of California, San Diego who were selected by NASA to test an experiment onboard a zero-gravity flight.

Previous tabletop experiments have explored close-in gravity by watching how a carefully suspended weight undergoes a torsion-like swivel in the presence of other nearby weights.

Researchers have conducted the first human experiments using a device intended to counteract the muscle-wasting effect of long periods in weightlessness -- a NASA centrifuge that spins a test ...

Experiments on moss grown aboard two Space Shuttle missions showed the plants didn't behave as scientists expected them to in the near-absence of gravity. The common roof moss (Ceratodon purpureus ...
