NASA Wants to Track Earth’s Gravity With a Cloud of Floating Atoms in Space

Buckle up, nerds: NASA is building the first quantum gravity sensor for space—a suitcase-sized instrument that could soon be measuring everything from subterranean water to hidden reserves of petroleum, all by watching how clouds of atoms act under the force of gravity. Researchers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), along with several partners, are developing the […]
