deep space experiment could measure the gravitational constant with nearly 1,000 times improvement in accuracy /

(Phys.org)—Scientists maintain proposed the first experiment that could measure the value of Newton's gravitational constant,G, from deep space instead of an soil-based laboratory. The researchers predict that the deep space experiment could estimate G with an improvement in precision of nearly three orders of magnitude, and since it would avoid the influence of soil's gravity.
