noun
- Plural of microgravity; conditions of very weak gravitational force, such as those experienced in orbiting spacecraft or during free fall.
Usage: technical; used in aerospace and physics contexts
Examples
- Astronauts conduct experiments in microgravities aboard the International Space Station.
- The effects of microgravities on plant growth have been studied extensively in space research.
- Scientists use parabolic flights to simulate microgravities for brief periods.
- Microgravities allow liquids to form perfect spheres without the influence of gravity.
- Understanding how the human body adapts to microgravities is crucial for long-duration space missions.
