‘Gravity tractor’ could be deployed to nudge asteroids away from Earth, says European Space Agency
Hollywood films would have us believe the best way to deal with an Earth-threatening asteroid is to blast it out of orbit. But the European Space Agency (ESA) is looking at a far subtler approach to ...

What is gravity?
Gravity also holds Earth and the other planets in their orbits around the Sun. The force of gravity also exists on the Moon but it is not as strong as it is on Earth. This is because the Moon is ...
