Casting a swirling shadow, a glowing candle flame sways eerily before flaring up once more. As ghostly as it looks, this flame dance is not the result of any force—paranormal or otherwise—but rather ...

A UA research team conducted an experiment it designed with NASA during the first week of June. The microgravity research team was one of 18 teams to participate in NASA’s highly competitive Reduced ...

A gentle rumble ran under Ngan Huang’s feet as a rocket carrying her research—live, human muscle cells grown on scaffolds fixed on tiny chips—lifted off, climbed, and disappeared into the sky to the ...

Students for the Exploration and Development of Space (SEDS-Canada) has selected the four finalist teams among a pool of applications for its latest initiative, the Canadian Reduced Gravity Experiment ...
