From science fiction to potential reality, artificial gravity promises to change the way we live and travel in space, making ...

The first planned artificial gravity experiment took place in late 1966, but the first human on the Moon beat them to it.

Earlier artificial-gravity designs revealed critical weaknesses. Nautilus-X, for example, relied on a rotating torus connected to a central corridor by a single passage. If that connection failed, ...

Though spacecraft with artificial gravity are still a distant dream, we had proof of concept way back in September 1966.

A look at how scientists and engineers explore ways to simulate gravity, including rotation and acceleration, for use in ...
