drop tower experiments
Drop tower experiments involve dropping objects or experiments from a tall tower to simulate conditions of weightlessness or microgravity. As the object falls freely, it experiences nearly zero gravity, allowing scientists to study how materials, fluids, or biological specimens behave without Earth's usual gravitational pull. This method provides valuable insights in fields like space research, materials science, and biology, all within a controlled environment. The tower's height ensures a few seconds of weightlessness during the fall, making it an effective and safe way to mimic space conditions on Earth.
