Ever since the apple fell on Isaac Newton's head that fateful day, scientists have been working hard to understand the mysterious force that is gravity. Lucky for us, they've learned a great deal, and the knowledge is out there for all to see! But as with many such concepts, while most people have a
We take gravity for granted. What would happen if Earth's gravity was cut in half? Click here to see more videos: https://alugha.com/LifeNoggin Follow Life Noggin! Instagram: https://instagram.com/lifenoggin/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/lifenoggin Official Website: https://lnstudios.co/ We ar
How do rockets break through gravity? Maths is all around us. It’s almost impossible to think of something that’s made without the help of mathematics. In this simpleshow we explain how maths made space travel a reality. Authors: Roman Ilyushenko, Nicolai Nobis The information for this video is p
At the time of Isaac Newton, it was believed that the celestial bodies were moved by the so-called ether, a substance assumed to fill up all of space. But no one could prove the existence of this substance. Newton realized: rather than ether, there must be a universal action at a distance, originati
Launched in September 2011, find out about the Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) mission to measure the gravitational field of the Moon and study how the Moon developed over time. Animations illustrate technical aspects of the mission's design, including the launch, orbital insertion
The universe is depicted as a flat grid. Earth, Moon and Sun dent this grid due to their mass. All celestial bodies then must move along the dents. But their centrifugal force acts against this. Author: ZDF/Terra X/ T. Schultes/ Nikolai Holzach Translation and dubbing: alugha Click here to see m
Learn how gravity can be described as the curving of spacetime, according to Einstein’s general theory of relativity, in this video from NOVA: Black Hole Apocalypse. Computer animations illustrate the concept of warped spacetime and how objects “fall” along a curved path. Use this resource to visual
Is sex in space possible? Concerning future long space expeditions this question is becoming one of the most popular, fielded by astronauts. In this video we explain how sex in space could work and the challenges that would be faced in zero gravity. The topic of sex in space may sound taboo, but we,
Astronomer Doris Daou explains how the forces of speed and gravity keep the Moon in a constant orbit around Earth in this animated video segment adapted from NASA. The Moon, Earth's natural satellite, seems to hover in the sky, unaffected by gravity. However, the reason the Moon stays in orbit is pr
Discover how scientists plan to use data from the GRAIL mission and a map of the Moon's gravitational field to learn about its internal structure. By comparing data about the Moon's gravity with information about its topography, scientists can gain a better understanding of the Moon's formation and
The possibility of war in space is a hot topic of discussion. As our society becomes more advanced, it seems only natural for warfare to move away from the surface of the earth, and instead to space. In fact, there were some worries that North Korea would detonate a nuclear bomb in space above the u
