The supergravity device 'CHIEF1300' is currently in operation at Zhejiang University in China, and installation of 'CHIEF1900' has also begun from December 22, 2025. CHIEF1300 can apply 1,300 times ...
Most cooling technology in use relies on vapor-compression technology, which circulates chemical refrigerants through a compressor. “The cooling sector has historically been very risk-averse,” said ...
After holding onto the record for possessing the world's most powerful centrifuge (or hypergravity machine) for close to three decades, the U.S. ceded that title to China in 2025. When China's new ...
China has unveiled an extremely powerful “hypergravity machine” that can generate forces almost two thousand times stronger than Earth’s regular gravity. The futuristic-looking machine, called ...
China has eclipsed its own – and the US – record, building a monster underground hypergravity centrifuge that can model scenarios with 1,900 times the real-world gravitational force of Earth, bending ...
What just happened? Deep beneath Zhejiang University in eastern China, scientists have switched on what is now the world's most powerful hypergravity machine – a massive centrifuge capable of ...
China has completed construction of the world’s most powerful hypergravity machine, a device designed to compress space and time to simulate extreme events like dam and earthquake disasters. The ...
