Floating around in the zero gravity space might sound fun, but it makes doing much of anything hard. Artificial gravity would help us settle space, but can it be done? Earth Science explains.

While magnets can definitely help with walking around the inside or outside of a space ship, it's not even close to a replacement for gravity. See, when a normal force (like gravity, or centrifugal force) acts on something, it will distribute the acceleration pretty evenly across the object. Although magnets can create a very strong force on something, it's more like sticking something to a wall in zero g. If you put magnets in your boots, for example, your feet will easily stick to the floor. But the rest of your body will still remain in zero g, especially if you're standing still.

i'v got a dumb question ....!!! What if we build a big gravitational machine big enough That can bend light Can we teleport from it?? Or it effects the earth gravitational What if we put that machine A lot more deep down from the highest mountains In artic or somwhere like everest.... Things really get starts (Gravity works as mass calculated as "g") Higher the mass it faster hits the ground With higher speed means higher "g"s So what if we tried to push something from top of the Mountain Straight To down wards where gravity machine is being place which pulls object's like earth does So basically the falling objects is getting pulled by earth's gravity and our machine at the same time With double the speed To achieve the speed of light ( teleport) basically i`m not a sciene student so excuse me i"m wrong

First thing first, the force of gravity is calculated by the equation Fg = (Gm1m2) / r^2, where G is a constant 6.67x10e-11. The one you have is just the weight in Newtons, W = mg. With that in mind, you cannot just simply *multiply* gravitational force. Bending light is out of the context as that is basically impossible outside of a lab (your basically talking about black holes), there have been experiments regarding this but none came to fruition yet.

First of all a few misconceptions here. Gravity is not a "force" and it does not "pull". A massive object (earth) bends the natural geodesic lines of space-time more near itself, than further. This creates what is known as a tidal effect. The bottom of the melon, feels a greater tidal effect because it is nearer to earth than the top side of the melon. This differential in tidal forces, causes the melon to follow the natural flow of space-time, hence accelerating towards the earth. In the case of the earth - melon system, the geodesic tides are not nearly strong enough, nor is the melon big enough for it to feel different g's on the bottom and on the top side (these differential in g's does exist but it is so small that the electromagnetic forces holding the melon together as an object keep it intact) but in the case of 2 big planetary bodies, the story is different. The moon does "feel" different g's on each of its sides because of its large diameter. If the moon was orbiting even closer to earth, the differential would be even greater, to the extent that the electromagnetic forces that hold the moon's molecules together, would not be strong enough to keep it intact (but the moon would need to be orbiting very close for this phenomena to happen). If you were to stand on top of a very small black hole (say 1 meter in diameter), the geodesic of space-time would be much more bent on your feet than on your head, causing you to feel the tidal effect with extreme consequences. Please use SI units in the video

I keep thinking gravity must have some sort of particles causing the effect and if we could isolate the particles, figure out how they work possibly we could produce gravity at will and for lack of words explain it as pulling in a different way.. or as someone was trying to say fall in a different direction.. Sometimes I really regret not going into physics, don't knkow why but gravity is facinating and somehow I think we are missing something realy simple and basic in how it works

1:40 - seriously guys you need to get this right if you are a science channel. The gravity of the earth does not pull objects towards its surface! The objects and the earth both exert a gravitational pull on each other - however due to the different in mass the small object has a lower inertia and therefore moves more towards the earth more than the earth moves towards the object.

Sure. Erect a track on earth at a 45° angle with respect to a point 1km away. Run the track around that point in a circle. Put a room on train wheels. Increase the speed of the train/room so the centrifugal force is equivalent to 1g. Now inside the car you experience 2g. As he said, it would have to be a bullet train at 225mph to get a 1g force that would add to the already existing 1g from earth gravity.

Exactly, knowing how to create gravity isn't the issue, we know that matter warps spacetime and causes gravity, but once we can understand WHY matter warps spacetime we could use this knowledge to potentially amplify these warping effects. An implication of this is taking a tennis ball, use our full understanding of how matter and spacetime are related, and amplify the tennis ball's gravitational effects exponentially. Something like this would make interstellar travel a cake walk

"It's kinda confusing since it's actually the force towards the middle of a rotation" is what I already said. Do read the comment properly before trying to correct someone. Also, centrifugal force represents the same physics as centripetal force. In addition, no it is not a real force. Please do at least a simple google search before exclaiming things incorrectly. "It is important to note that the centrifugal force does not actually exist." Written by the first education site i googled and found in less than 2 minutes. phun.physics.virginia.edu/topics/centrifugal.html The CORRECT explanation for centrifugal force is (again I already wrote this) just a way to explain what is happening using newton's laws in a rotational motion.

Sorry I haven't conveyed what I am trying to say very well. What I meant to say is that people don't often confuse centripetal force and centrifugal force because most of the time people are actually talking about centrifugal force, since people are experiencing this 'force' from an non inertial reference frame. In the video they meant centrifugal force since they were talking about the perspective of the astronaut who is in a non inertial reference frame. The point I was making about centrifugal force being a force or not is that it depends on the reference frame. This is to do with the equivalence principle. There is no way when viewed from the reference frame of the person moving in a circle to tell whether they are accelerating or there is a force acting on them, I shouldn't have used real in my previous comment. Obviously I concede that centrifugal force is not being caused by any of the fundamental forces but from the perspective of the person accelerating it is impossible to tell whether it is a pseudo-force or a fundamental force. Hopefully that clears it up! We are on the same side I just think I mis-communicated my point. Sorry!

Hmm no explanation as to why the magnetism idea was even considered? Very strong magnetic fields tend to levitate organic matter. Why's that? That's because organic matter generally consists of a lot of water and water is diamagnetic, which means it is weakly repelled by a magnetic field. Key word here being weakly. Which is why you need a very strong magnetic field to notice the effect. Also notice that while the magnet would repel the water inside you, there's some iron in your bloodstream which would be attracted toward the magnet. So your blood flow might get seriously hampered by it. Hmm that's without taking into account all the positively charged sodium, potassium and calcium ions in your muscles and nerves. They too would respond to an external magnetic field.

The trick is not to explain gravity. That will come. Once we understand how motion works. I mean what is the effect of gravity that we see. A suspended object at rest has potential energy. Once released to drop to the ground the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. Which is converted to heat energy when the motion stops, a.k.a. it hits the ground, which is radiated out. So no energy is created - That's impossible. It's simply a series of conversions from one type of energy to the next - Probably driven by the rules around entropy. The trick is to understand the step that converts potential energy to kinetic energy completely.

224 mph may seem fast. but the international space is travelling around earth at 17 400 mph, and the earth is spinning at roughly 1000 mph. so is 224 mph really all that fast in space?

The _Dawn_ probe, first human-made visitor to Vesta and Ceres, could go from zero to 224 miles per hour in a little less than four days. That's quick enough for spinning a cabin on a tether up to full gravity. All it used was electricity and a few ounces of xenon.

You need a wall for the centrifugal force to act against. If you were talking about holding water over your head with a flat surface, i dont want to answer that. Either way, you need at least one wall for solids and probably three walls for liquids (3 provided you start with just the amount that can stand on the flat surface) any amount of liquid that you want to try and swing that you start with just a one sided object that doesnt have an encloser for the liquid.... Well you didnt have much liquid to start with, and you ended with even less.

Have a look at the alcubierre metric for a gravitationnal drive. He design it in harmony with Einstein. It would require negative energy, wich might not exist, but next years confirmation or not of antigravity property of antimatter might render such a metric really possible! Might want to add that to your video

Actually one must also add the possibility of rotating upon an axis as a Planetary Body ("Dyson Sphere.") Given sufficient mass in orbit around say the Moon or the Earth or even the Sun (between Mars and Jupiter) and a human made Planetary Body cannot be ruled out as "un-possible" and at the moment at least (Year 2021) one could argue as suddenly a probability. This would matter first and foremost as some type of shielding from the enormous radiation emanating from the Sun but secondarily would be the creation of well, at a minimum artificial gravity.

If you could warp space-time to get a warp drive, then you should be able to warp space-time within the outer space warp bubble to get artificial gravity inside a space ship. So, perhaps long-distance space travel for living beings will have to wait for warp drive technology, to get the technology for both propulsion and pseudogravity.

Disappointed how entry-level this video was when you are talking about one of the most misunderstood concepts in science. Why not go a bit deeper and mention what gravity is with reference to quantum fields, or at least mention it as a process of spacetime annihilation. There's all sorts of topics you could have mentioned such as Alcubierre drives (that seek to use the properties of gravity and dark energy to achieve faster than light velocities), exotic matter, and some of the more pertinent discoveries with reference to the Casimir effect.

What about super compressed radon? Its atomic mass is 222 and if you could compress a lot of it in one space it could have its own gravity. It is one of the heaviest gases out there allowing for liquid radon, if you compress it then it could actually attract objects to it. Although... it is very radioactive.

Radon's most stable isotope also only has a half-life of 3.8 days, is an alpha emitter, and while that is not a danger so long as it's outside of the body, it will quickly irradiate its container. Some of its decay products are also beta emitters, which pose a much higher risk. And yeah, kinda a big problem needing the mass of the earth in radon, even if you could somehow "stablise" an isotope, I think you'd need to mine more than a few solar systems to amass enough...

As long as there is mass, there is gravity. An apple still has a measurable gravity as long as you use a = Gm^2/r^2. The reason that it may not appear so is that everything is dominated by Earth's gravity. In a fictional space where you and an apple only exist, the apple will very slowly come to you since you have a greater gravitational pull.

@@TrinityLinkq Let's imagine that super heavy element, that a cubic centimeter weighs 100 tons, what is the utility of the gravity it generates?

Very different from if we find an elementary particle that mediates that interaction, and that we can manipulate in the future.

Walter Marlin depends how the space elevator is created (I think) if it's like a super long table or a platform on a pole (unlikely) you'll experience gravity though lesser than surface. If it's a tether (more likely) then it's zero g. I might be mistaken
