To do that, the New Shepard capsule will fire its reaction control system thrusters to spin up to about 11 revolutions per minute. "This spin rate simulates one-sixth Earth gravity at the midpoint ...

They have developed 3D structures with “adjustable flexibility.” These structures can control sound and light, which opens up a world of possibilities in fields like acoustics, optics ...

Ever since Isaac Newton famously talked about gravity, its dominance as a force in our solar system has been well known. It's responsible for the orbits of the planets and their satellites ...

Gravity still works—if somewhat unreliably. Politicians who overinterpret narrow wins in a divided country get pulled back to Earth, usually by the midterms. But not just that—the federal ...

New Shepard will create those "lunar gravity forces" by firing its reaction-control thrusters so that it rotates about 11 times per minute. Breaking space news, the latest updates on rocket ...
