Mad Science of Austin & San Antonio teaches us about center of gravity, pressure and centripetal force with four easy balloon science experiments you can do with your kids at home this summer.

COMSTOCK PARK, Mich. — Rising air is all around us— outside and inside. It's what meteorologists call "convection." Warm air is lighter and less dense than cold air, so it has buoyancy and wants to ...

NASA Glenn Research Center, in Brook Park, invites students in ninth to 12 grades to create experiments that NASA will test in balloons that fly in the stratosphere, or about 19 miles above Earth. The ...

A suite of scientific balloons is about to lift off from NASA’s Columbia Scientific Balloon Facility’s field site in Fort Sumner, New Mexico, carrying instruments that will help scientists understand ...

The Science Siblings popped by with an experiment fit for Liftiversary week involving balloons, candles, and oranges. Paige and Adam Jacobson suggest safety glasses too. “We will be working with ...

NASA is accepting applications from graduate and undergraduate university students to fly experiments to the edge of space aboard a high-altitude scientific balloon. This balloon flight competition is ...

Audrey O'Grady receives funding from Science Foundation Ireland. She is affiliated with Department of Biological Sciences, University of Limerick. Many people think science is difficult and needs ...

What is the nature of dark matter? A new experiment led by Columbia University physics professors aims to find out.

This video follows a diving experiment designed to demonstrate how air behaves under pressure using a simple balloon. As the diver descends, the balloon compresses rapidly, showing how increasing ...

“NASA is accepting applications from graduate and undergraduate university students to fly experiments to the edge of space on a scientific balloon next year. The balloon competition is a joint ...

THE military balloon experiments at Woolwich have been so far successful, that last week an aëronaut was lifted some 700 feet, to a height, therefore, sufficient for reconnoitring purposes. There is ...
