Powers/Abilities/Functions: The Gravity Nullifier is a hand-held rod that can nullify gravity on objects, allowing something weighing at least a few hundred pounds to float through the air and be guided by in both horizontal and vertical distances by holder of the Nullifer. 

History:
(
Thor I#131 (fb) - BTS) - Traveling to Earth to evaluate Tana Nile's claim to Earth, a pair of Rigellian inspectors parked their ship on top of the Town Tower, Jane Foster's apartment building, after which they convened with Tana Nile. 

(Thor I#131) - When Thor arrived, Tana used a Mind-Thrust to force him to his knees, but when he resisted that, one of the inspectors used a Proto Coagulation Ray at maximum intensity, sealing Thor in a proton cage.

    The inspectors then prepared to take Thor back to Rigel-3, hoping that by studying him, they could find a way to defeat the one within the Black Galaxy (Ego), the only other being to have resisted a mind-thrust. The inspectors used their Gravity Nullifier to transport the Proton Cage down the hallway. After they reached the roof top, one of the inspectors used the Visi-Rod to make their craft visible, while the other guided the proton cage into their ship via the Gravity Nullifier, and they departed for Rigel-3.

CommentsCreated by Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and Vince Colletta.

    I don't have listings of appearances for all of the Rigellian technology, so I'll profile what I know, and as I go through all of the Rigellian appearances in the process of building a Rigellian profile, I'll add additional appearances as I find them. If you know of more, let me know...
