      Submission statement:

      >CHIEF1900 possesses a capacity of 1,900 g-tonnes, surpassing the previous world record held by its predecessor, the CHIEF1300, and dwarfing the 1,200 g-tonne centrifuge operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. To put it in perspective, while a standard household washing machine generates about 2g of force during a spin cycle, this machine can subject multi-tonne samples to forces 100 times greater than Earth’s gravity.

      >By utilizing hypergravity, researchers can manipulate the laws of scale. For instance, to test the structural integrity of a 300-meter-tall dam, engineers can spin a three-meter scale model at 100g, which can replicate the internal stresses the full-sized structure would face, allowing for the observation of potential failure points.

      „A device designed to compress space and time“

      The article tries hard to make it sound like SciFi magic, but it’s a centrifuge, not a Tardis.

      What the fuck is a „g-tonne“? I can’t find it anywhere except in references to this article and things that are actually „g/tonne“.

      „Hypergravity“? Okay, apparently that means any situation where you perceive more than one g of gravity. The spinny saucer ride at the state fair has „hypergravity.“ So does a dad spinning a little kid at arm’s length.

      „A device designed to compress space and time.“ Just fuck all the way off.

      This is a centrifuge. It’s quite a nice centrifuge! Very well-engineered! Still just a centrifuge! Stop talking like it’s something out of Star Trek!

      By their logic, I just made a hyper gravity machine in my office by spinning in my chair really fast. Weeee!
