Gravity is the unseen force that shapes the universe, yet we rarely give it much thought. First explained by Sir Isaac Newton, it is the pull that draws objects toward one another based on their mass ...

“Quantum sensing opens an entirely new domain for U.S. space leadership,” said Dana Anderson, Chief Science Officer at Infleqtion. “By deploying this technology in orbit, we are demonstrating the ...

CC0 Usage Conditions ApplyClick for more information. Gravity is the main force to be dealt with in space, and thrust is the force that allows a spacecraft to get into space and maneuver.

Infleqtion and NASA prepare to send the first quantum gravity sensor into orbit, advancing climate science and quantum sensing technology.

In this video from NASA, astronaut Don Pettit demonstrates how water drops orbit a charged knitting needle in the absence of gravity, modeling a solar system. He points out, however, that the forces ...
