After accounting for Earth’s rotation, gravity is slightly weaker beneath Antarctica than anywhere else on the planet. That ...
The geoid (the surface of equal gravitational potential of a hypothetical ocean at rest) serves as the classical reference ...
Achieving sub-second 3D printing, DISH combines wave-optics modeling and angular illumination to improve resolution and depth ...
The simulations showed that the gravity hole was initially much less pronounced. Between roughly 50 million and 30 million years ago, however, it intensified significantly. This period coincides with ...

Antarctica hides Earth’s most extreme gravity hole, and scientists finally know why
A frozen continent at the bottom of the world sits over the deepest dip in Earth’s gravitational pull, a feature that has persisted for roughly 70 million years. Scientists have long known about this ...

Lori Dengler | The sea is not level
"The ocean surface is definitely not flat. It is constantly changing as wind, waves and swells produce surface undulations, daily tidal fluctuations raise and lower the average height." ...
Jamaat’s surge reshaped the contest, but constituency arithmetic and network power determined the outcome.
A record-breaking gravitational wave signal let scientists "listen" to a distant black hole merger and put Einstein's gravity to its toughest test yet.
For the first time, an international team of astronomers have mapped the vertical structure of Uranus's upper atmosphere, uncovering how temperature and charged particles vary with height across the ...
Since the 1990s, astronomers have found a handful of other dwarf planets in the belt, such as Eris and Sedna, along with ...
A new radio survey reveals that the Milky Way’s magnetic field is intricate, widespread, and deeply connected to how the galaxy is organized.
