Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

Space is, in astronomy, a predominantly vacuum-formed part of the universe outside Earth's atmosphere.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

An exact boundary between the end of the Earth's atmosphere and the onset of space cannot be set, because the density of the atmosphere decreases as the Earth's gravitational field weakens as it zoom out from Earth and there is no clear boundary, but space can be considered to begin at a height of 100 km From the Kármán border.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

[1] At this altitude, the density of the atmosphere is no longer only about 1/2200000 of the density of the ground's atmosphere.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

Space is almost exclusively a vacuum.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

The mass filling the void is in dark matter, stars and planets.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

There are still extremely low-density hydrogen clouds hovering in interstellar space (the density is on the order of one atom per cubic centimeter), as well as photons, neutrinos and other elementary particles.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

Some of the interstellar matter exists as molecules (molecular clouds) as well as dust particles thought to consist primarily of graphite and silicates.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

Most of the mass of space is, according to modern knowledge, so-called dark matter.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

The composition of dark matter is not known precisely, but it has been speculated that it could consist of, for example, neutrinos, small black holes or so far unknown elementary particles.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

[2] Where does space begin?


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

Earth's atmosphere is thinning upwards by the time, and therefore there is no clear boundary between the atmosphere and space.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

8,000 feet above sea level: A death zone above which the oxygen content in the air is not enough to keep alive.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Historical understandings in the 4th-century Greek philosopher Parmenides stated that there could be no vacuum in space in any way.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

For hundreds of years, Western countries believed this to be true.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

As recently as the 17th century, the French philosopher René Descartes argued that space must consist of something.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

Ancient China, too, had a wide variety of different theories about space, much reminiscent of current understandings.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

In the 10th century, astronomer Zhang Heng was convinced that space was endless and will continue far beyond our own solar system.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

Preserved books from the Hsüan Yeh school of ancient China said that the sky is boundless, “empty, and devoid of substance”.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

In addition, “The Sun and Moon, with stars following them, float in empty space, moving or out of place”.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

Italian scientist Galileo Galilei knew that air has mass and gravity is able to influence it.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

In 1640, he demonstrated that a stable force resists the formation of a vacuum.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

His student Evangelista Torricelli was able in 1643 to manufacture a machine capable of creating a vacuum.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

This experiment gave the beginning of the first mercury barometer, a revolutionary invention in Europe.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

French philosopher Blaise Pascal argued that if the mercury column had been supported by air, then the column should be shorter at high altitude, where the air pressure is lower.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

In 1648, his brother-in-law Florin Périer experimented with a device on the Puy de Dôme mountain in central France, and found that the mercury column was about eight inches shorter.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

This change in barometric pressure was also observed when the half-full balloon was carried to a mountaintop and was found to expand as it rose.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

In 1650, German scientist Otto von Guericke built the first vacuum pump.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

This was a device that would disprove Aristotle's theory of horror vacuin.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

He also speculated that the atmosphere surrounds the Earth like a crust, and that air density decreases as it rises upward.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

He also stated that there is bound to be a vacuum between the Earth and the Moon.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

In the 15th century, German theologian Nicolaus Cusanus speculated that the universe has no center or circumference.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

He believed that the universe may not be endless, but so large that it could have no limit.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

These ideas created speculation about the endlessness of space, which was dabbled by the Italian philosopher Giordano Bruno in the 16th century.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

He pursued Copernicus' solar-centric cosmology to the point where he believed an endless universe was composed of matter called aether that would create no resistance to masses moving in space.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

The English philosopher William Gilbert agreed in part.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

He noted that stars are visible only because they are surrounded by a thin aether or vacuum.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

The aether concept originated from Greek philosophers such as Aristotle.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

These were perceived as a canvas of space in which celestial objects are embedded.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

The theory of a universe full of light ether remained popular among some scientists even into the 20th century.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

Light ether was seen to be a substance through which light would be able to spread.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

In 1887, the Michelsonin—Morley experiment attempted to detect the motions of the earth using the light ether, looking for changes in the speed of light depending on the direction of motion of the earth.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

An inconclusive experiment showed that there is something wrong with the theory, so the concept of light ether was abandoned.


Question: Can Earth experience non-gravity?

Space

The concept was replaced by Einstein's theory of relativity, which says that the speed of light in a vacuum is unchanged.
