I’m sure we’ve all wondered what it would be like to travel through space. We typically think of space as a weightless vacuum where we can float free without the influence of gravity. But what happens when you visit another planet? Neil Fraser was wondering the same thing, but he was more interested in what would happen to a Lava Lamp on another planet. Neil took the time to build a centrifuge in his house to help simulate the gravitation pull on Jupiter (3 G’s). In order to assist him on his project, Neil opted to enlist the most advanced handset currently available on the market, the HTC built Nexus One.
We could explain how the experiment works, but I think it’ll be a lot more fun if you watch it for yourself.
