... the mission had to make use of a trick called gravity assist, whereby a trajectory is designed such that the spacecraft... flies in the vicinity of a planet, and uses its gravity field for a further acceleration in its heliocentric orbit - thereby...
...rocks, and how the Moon’s comparatively simple evolution, and lower gravity, provides a test of a new idea of how those crystals... evolved on Earth has been subject to the same gravity underpinning the dynamic process. Using this natural phenomenon as...
...varying physical conditions but one constant factor which has remained largely unchanged throughout time is Earth’s 1G gravity force. After millennia of evolution human organs and physiological systems all function according to the parameters imposed...
... my vision for Space Juggling. Language is especially critical when your opportunities to practice are limited, such as in zero gravity. In 2016, when I went on my first parabolic flight, it was interesting to hear how other people spoke about their...
... major hazards appear during long spaceflights: space radiation, isolation and confinement, distance from Earth, low gravity, and the hostile and closed environment of a spacecraft. Living plants and freshly grown food could play...
... sperm and oocytes,” said Dr Edelbroek. “A series of ARTIS missions in the coming years will enable research on partial gravity effects on embryo development and help us move towards the ultimate goal of human reproduction and childbirth in space...
