The probe, which launched in 2004, was designed to test the effect Earth's gravity has on the space-time around it. According to Einstein, the Earth warps its local space-time like a bowling ball ...

NASA's Gravity Probe B mission has blasted off successfully and has begun a 44-day period in which it gears up to test Einstein's theory of gravity with exquisite precision. The three-tonne probe ...

Finally, new electric SUV options are on the way. Some of them, like the Kia EV9, are relatively inexpensive. Some, however, are luxury options — like the Lucid Gravity. It joins the Lucid Air ...

Engineers have designed a compact, battery-powered radio probe that could help unlock the secrets of alien planets. The proposed small probe, known as the Gravity Imaging Radio Observer (GIRO ...

For road-trippers and commuters, here are 16 cars with zero gravity seats that can really save your butt Thank the astronauts for these seats Published: June 9, 2025 at 5:02 a.m. ET ...

A NASA probe orbiting Earth has confirmed two key predictions of Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity, which describes how gravity causes masses to warp space-time around them. The ...

GOCE, which launched on Tuesday, is set to offer 100-kilometre-resolution maps of Earth’s entire gravity field, the most detailed yet. Its maps could help refine climate change projections and ...

Nasa's Gravity Probe B has produced remarkable new confirmation of some key predictions by Albert Einstein. The satellite's observations show the massive body of the Earth is very subtly warping ...

After many delays and false starts, Gravity Probe B was finally launched in April 2004. It tested both effects with four gyroscopes consisting of spinning quartz spheres coated with the metal niobium.

The proposed small probe, known as the Gravity Imaging Radio Observer (GIRO), would use gravity fields to precisely map the interiors and compositions of the outer planets and other celestial bodies.
