American interest in " gravity control propulsion research " intensified during the early 1950s. Literature from that period used the terms anti-gravity, anti-gravitation, baricentric, counterbary, electrogravitics (eGrav), G-projects, gravitics, gravity control, and gravity propulsion. [1][2] Their publicized goals were to discover and develop ...
The Gravity Research Foundation is an organization established in 1948 by businessman Roger Babson (founder of Babson College) [1] to find ways to implement gravitational shielding. [2][3] Over time, the foundation turned away from trying to block gravity and began trying to understand it. It holds an annual contest rewarding essays by ...
Nona M. Dougherty (m. 1957 – d. 1963) Children. 1. Roger Ward Babson (July 6, 1875 – March 5, 1967) was an American entrepreneur, economist, and business theorist in the first half of the 20th century. He is best remembered for founding Babson College. He also founded Webber College, now Webber International University, in Babson Park ...
Jayant Narlikar. Thanu Padmanabhan (10 March 1957 – 17 September 2021) was an Indian theoretical physicist and cosmologist whose research spanned a wide variety of topics in gravitation, structure formation in the universe and quantum gravity. He published nearly 300 papers and reviews in international journals and ten books in these areas.
GRACE and GRACE-FO. The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) was a joint mission of NASA and the German Aerospace Center (DLR). Twin satellites took detailed measurements of Earth's gravity field anomalies from its launch in March 2002 to the end of its science mission in October 2017. The two satellites were sometimes called Tom and ...
Physicist. Burkhard Heim (German: [haɪm]; 9 February 1925 – 14 January 2001) was a German theoretical physicist known for creating a unified field theory called Heim theory. [1] He was particularly interested in the application of his theory to the development of hyperspace travel. [2]
Anti-gravity. Artistic depiction of a fictional anti-gravity vehicle. Anti-gravity (also known as non-gravitational field) is a hypothetical phenomenon of creating a place or object that is free from the force of gravity. It does not refer to either the lack of weight under gravity experienced in free fall or orbit, or to balancing the force of ...
Thomas Townsend Brown. Thomas Townsend Brown (March 18, 1905 – October 27, 1985) [1] was an American inventor whose research into odd electrical effects led him to believe he had discovered a type of anti-gravity caused by strong electric fields. Instead of being an anti-gravity force, what Brown observed has generally been attributed to ...
