Microgravity measurement in space using imaging techniques

The proposal is made that very small changes in gravitational field could be detected by monitoring a cell of heated fluid. Variations in gravity would be observed by their effect on the convection in the fluid cell. It is proposed that the convection patterns be observed by using an interferometer...
