NASA Prepares to Launch First Quantum Sensor for Measuring Gravity from Orbit

NASA, in collaboration with academia and private companies, is developing the first quantum sensor to map Earth's gravity from space. Using cold rubidium atoms, the compact instrument will deliver highly sensitive, long-term measurements. This mission could transform how we study Earth's subsurface and explore planetary bodies across the solar system.
