“This is why people are so hard to understand. I cannot even estimate their gravitational pull.” — Courtney Milan Copy Share Image
The human body experiences a powerful gravitational pull in the direction of hope — Norman Cousins Copy Share Image
Wormholes are a gravitational phenomena. Or imaginary gravitational phenomena, as the case may be. — Jonathan Nolan Copy Share Image
Any two particles in the universe attract each other through the gravitational interaction. — Lee Smolin Copy Share Image
You find the people that you need to find. There's this gravitational pull. — Ryan McGinley Copy Share Image
The detection of gravitational waves is truly a triumph of modern large-scale experimental physics. — Barry Barish Copy Share Image
Experimentally, we now have demonstrated that Einstein's theory is right in strong gravitational fields. That's important to a lot of people. — Rainer Weiss Copy Share Image
Gravitational waves will bring us exquisitely accurate maps of black holes - maps of their space-time. Those maps will make it crystal… — Kip Thorne Copy Share Image
We know about black holes and neutron stars, but we hope there are other phenomena we can see because of the gravitational… — Rainer Weiss Copy Share Image
Gravitational waves, because they are so imperturbable - they go through everything - they will tell you the most information you can… — Rainer Weiss Copy Share Image
“Prior to then it was believed that black holes were just cosmic cookie monsters, swallowing everything that came within their gravitational clutches.” — John D. Barrow Copy Share Image
If the universe sprung into existence and then expanded exponentially, you get gravitational waves traveling through space-time. These would fill the universe,… — Neil Turok Copy Share Image
We cannot explain the phenomenon of gravitational lensing without general relativity, and this is where MOND spectacularly fails. — Priyamvada Natarajan Copy Share Image
Many of us on the project were thinking if we ever saw a gravitational wave, it'd be an itsy bitsy little tiny… — Rainer Weiss Copy Share Image
It would of course be a great step forward if we succeeded in combining the gravitational field and the electromagnetic field into… — Albert Einstein Copy Share Image
“The gravitational field of Earth will determine the direction of the rock that you drop from your hand. Aristotle concluded, from the… — Henning Genz Copy Share Image
“He understood that the sources of the gravitational field were not just ponderable matter but also field energy. He realized that gravitational… — Abraham Pais Copy Share Image
Even if 'going retrograde' or 'moving into Aquarius' were real phenomena, something that planets actually do, what influence could they possibly have… — Richard Dawkins Copy Share Image
Einstein had looked at the numbers and dimensions that went into his equations for gravitational waves and said, essentially, 'This is so… — Rainer Weiss Copy Share Image
To place a man in a multi-stage rocket and project him into the controlling gravitational field of the moon where the passengers… — Lee De Forest Copy Share Image
Recent results from astronomers who study the occasional gravitational lensing of unknown worlds by intervening stars suggest that orphan planets could be… — Seth Shostak Copy Share Image
The waves are subtle, altering spacetime and the distance between objects as far apart as the Earth and the Moon by much… — Barry Barish Copy Share Image
The theory that gravitational attraction is inversely proportional to the square of the distance leads by remorseless logic to the conclusion that… — Anthony Standen Copy Share Image
“The universal character of the centrifugal forces leaves us impotent as to discern whether what is going on inside the carrousel is… — Felix Alba-Juez Copy Share Image
The cyclic universe theory predicts no gravitational waves from the early universe. — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
Parents are the centre of a person's solar system, even as an adult. My dad had a stronger gravitational pull than most,… — Justin Trudeau Copy Share Image
General relativity predicts that time ends inside black holes because the gravitational collapse squeezes matter to infinite density. — Lee Smolin Copy Share Image
For reasons probably related to the popular vision of Albert Einstein and, also, the threat posed by black holes in comic books… — Rainer Weiss Copy Share Image
This is the first real evidence that we've seen now of high gravitational field strengths: monstrous things like stars moving at the… — Rainer Weiss Copy Share Image
The obvious thing to me was, let's take freely floating masses in space and measure the time it takes light to travel… — Rainer Weiss Copy Share Image
The hazards posed by Near-Earth Asteroids are assessed by Sentry, a computer system developed by the Near-Earth Objects Group at NASA's Jet… — Brendan I. Koerner Copy Share Image
Why do guests always end up in the kitchen at parties? Is it a social phenomenon? Some strange gravitational pull? I don't… — Candice Olson Copy Share Image
I didn't understand the Weber bar and how gravitational waves interacted with it. I sat and thought about it over a weekend,… — Rainer Weiss Copy Share Image
Gravitational and electromagnetic interactions are long-range interactions, meaning they act on objects no matter how far they are separated from each other. — Francois Englert Copy Share Image
The Planck satellite may detect the imprint of the gravitational waves predicted by inflation. This would be quantum gravity written across the… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
The rule has been that when one opens a new channel to the universe, there is usually a surprise in it. Why… — Rainer Weiss Copy Share Image
The gravitational force cannot be held responsible for the people falling in love. — Divya Copy Share Image
“the gravitational field is not diffused through space; the gravitational field is that space itself.” — Carlo Rovelli Copy Share Image
