(1) Cool, thick, old oceanic lithosphere is gravitationally unstable as it is generally denser than the asthenosphere over which it lies.

(2) That movement presumably stems from the galaxy being gravitationally drawn towards something.

(3) Star clusters are groups of stars which are gravitationally bound.

(4) Parking an asteroid in a gravitationally neutral spot between the Earth and the sun, known as a Lagrange point, would provide a stationary base from which to launch missions further into space.

(5) That close proximity to its star keeps it gravitationally locked in place just as the moon is to the Earth, meaning the same side of COROT-7b always faces the star.

(6) This fact is unexpected. For gravitationally bound objects such as ordinary stars and rocky planets, more massive objects are larger.

(7) Spiral galaxies are considered to be gravitationally bound configurations of stars.

(8) Most galaxies are found in gravitationally bound groups, called clusters.

(9) Light from this galaxy is gravitationally lensed by Abell 2667, appearing much like a distant person would appear through a wine glass.

(10) Black holes gravitationally draw gas and dust into them, accelerating and heating this attracted matter until it emits high-energy radiation, including X-rays and ultraviolet light.

(11) The orientation of those gravitationally bound pairs of galaxies should be completely random, as viewed from our vantage point within the solar system.

(12) That left only one possibility: a planet gravitationally pulling on the star.

(13) But a binary star—two gravitationally locked stars that orbit each other—"could do it, and a star that already has at least one planet," he said.

(14) The distorted shape and faint tidal tail suggest that NGC 3628 is interacting gravitationally with the other spiral galaxies in the Leo triplet, M66 and M65.

(15) The giant pillars are light years in length and are so dense that interior gas contracts gravitationally to form stars.

(16) Close inspection of the above image will reveal that the arced galaxies at 2 and 4 o'clock are actually gravitationally lensed images of the same galaxy.

(17) A suitable asteroid might have its orbit modified so that it could be parked at the Earth-moon Lagrangian point 5, a gravitationally stable location in circumlunar space.

(18) A large cloud of gas and dust begins to congeal gravitationally, starts rotating, and eventually flattens into an object called a protostellar disk.

(19) Plus, Earth 2 keeps getting bigger as the movie goes on, meaning that it gets closer without gravitationally disrupting our home's orbit.

(20) IC 342 may have undergone a recent burst of star formation activity and is close enough to have gravitationally influenced the evolution of the local group of galaxies and the Milky Way.

(21) "THE BIGGEST LOSER" is a reality-TV format, broadcast round the world, that encourages gravitationally challenged contestants to reduce their weight.

(22) In the new study, researchers used the Herschel Space Observatory. The brightest spots on their sky map all turned out to be gravitationally magnified galaxies.

(23) Because the newfound exoplanet orbits so close to its star, it's gravitationally locked to the smaller body.

(24) This could open cluster with too little mass to gravitationally hold together for very long.

(25) So while entire planets could be swallowed by a large black hole after passing its event horizon, mini black holes could gravitationally bind matter around them in orbit.

(26) During the slow, hundred million year collision, however, one galaxy can rip the other apart gravitationally [Sentencedict.com], and dust and gas common to both galaxies does collide.

(27) Some clumpy structures will exceed their Jeans mass and become gravitationally unstable, and may again fragment to form a single or multiple star system.

(28) Because the planet is so close to the star, it is gravitationally locked to it in the same way the Moon is locked to Earth.
