His gravity could explain a falling apple, the motion of the moon, and the rest of the objects in the solar system. And remember, he didn't even know the value of G, the gravitational constant.

In 2021 the Utah group developed the differential emissivity imaging disdrometer (DEID), an instrument designed to measure the mass, size and density of falling snowflakes, or "hydrometeors." This ...

Research observing the physical motion of falling ice crystals could help scientists better estimate where and when these crystals will melt into raindrops.

A project at the University of Utah has studied the motion of snowflakes moving through turbulent air as they fall to the ground, a complex and dynamic environment.. As well as a better understanding ...
