The effects of microgravity can be seen when astronauts and objects float in space.Thu, 16 Apr 2026 19:55:00 GMThttps://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/399688/fire-behaviour-in-microgravityThe NASA has conducted an experiment in space (Flame Extinguishment Experiment (FLEX)) where they'd initiate a combustion in microgravity in order to test the effectiveness of different fire suppre...Sun, 22 Mar 2026 15:38:00 GMThttps://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/709078/does-convection-occur-in-microgravity-due-to-pressure-gradientIn a microgravity environment, the gas will heat and expand uniformly in all directions. Due to diffusion and thermal conduction (followed by eventual thermal equilibrium of the whole region), there will be no significant temperature (and therefore pressure) differences in the entire region at any time, meaning there will not be any noticeable fluid motion as such.Fri, 10 Apr 2026 00:50:00 GMThttps://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/289180/effect-of-gravity-on-height-of-a-personAstronauts experiencing microgravity in space have indeed been found to return to Earth a few centimeters taller than when they left. Some studies conducted have indicated that microgravity affects the spinal vertebrae, allowing them to expand and relax more easily than when under the effect of the Earth's gravity (where the greater gravitational force of the Earth pulls the spine downwards ...Wed, 22 Apr 2026 13:29:00 GMThttps://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/24816/what-exactly-is-the-microgravity-field-in-orbitWhat exactly is the microgravity field in orbit? Ask Question Asked 13 years, 11 months ago Modified 12 years, 5 months agoFri, 10 Apr 2026 23:44:00 GMThttps://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/442764/why-do-water-drops-form-spheres-in-spaceMinimizing energy. If there is a small amount of water, then surface tension wants to try and minimize the surface area of it, and the minimum surface area for a given volume material is a sphere. For really large volumes of water (if you, for instance, sucked all the water out of the oceans and placed it somewhere far away in space in the standard mad-scientist way), then you also get a ...Fri, 17 Apr 2026 09:03:00 GMThttps://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/207629/magnets-in-microgravityLets say you were in a space station in microgravity. If you were to suspend a magnet in the air would it migrate slowly towards the nearest magnetic surface?Thu, 16 Apr 2026 04:46:00 GMThttps://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/489814/pressure-in-giant-ball-of-water-floating-in-spaceIf you ever encounter a ball of liquid water floating in otherwise empty space, then you should observe it carefully and write a paper, because by not immediately boiling it is defying the laws of physics---unless its own gravity is enough to retain an atmosphere of water vapour at some notable pressure.Tue, 14 Apr 2026 06:14:00 GMThttps://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/647690/astronauts-being-able-to-move-heavier-objects-easily-in-spaceI was watching this video where the astronauts demonstrate how an object that would weigh some large amount on Earth is nearly weightless in the microgravity experienced onboard the ISS.
