If a person with a mass of 55kg was to travel to Jupiter or Pluto, the effects of gravity would be very different from those on Earth. Gravity is the pull that a planet exerts towards its centre.

you're be traveling at 110,000 mph under the pull of Jupiter's gravity. But brace yourself. You'll quickly hit the denser atmosphere below, which will hit you like a wall. It won't be enough to ...

Research and development is underway to create robots that can hunt for signs of life in the vast oceans that exist under the ...

Galileo Galilei's telescopic discovery of Jupiter's four moons in 1610 revolutionized astronomy and supported heliocentric ...

“Our launcher can put us on an orbit that goes around the Sun, but that’s not enough to reach Jupiter directly so we will gain a lot of energy by doing planetary gravity assist manoeuvres ...

The #LucyMission will perform its 2nd Earth-gravity assist on Dec. 12, putting it on a new course toward its first Trojan asteroid encounter in 2027. On the way, Lucy will pass through the main ...

This two-pound meteorite was probably blasted off the larger one, called Vesta. Jupiter’s gravity later slung it to Earth, where it landed on the Antarctic snow. In 1993 Renu Malhotra figured ...
