Gravity has become an unlikely viral villain, blamed for an imagined global blackout in which the planet briefly lets go of ...

We experience the flow of time because it’s a natural outcome of the basic laws of physics. But we may need to build a whole ...

Mind = blown.

For over a century, physicists have been trying to answer one of the most profound questions in science: Can gravity be unified with the quantum world? While the main model describes the ...

A rift runs deep through the heart of physics. The general theory of relativity, which describes gravity, clashes with quantum physics. In an effort to seal that physics fissure, untold numbers of ...

The idea of emergent gravity is still new and requires a lot of assumptions in its calculations to make it work. But if experimental evidence ever proves it real, we would need to totally rewrite the ...

Do dead stars glow? A strange gravitational phenomenon could be generating enormous amounts of light around neutron stars, new research suggests. When you purchase through links on our site, we may ...

Just over a week ago, European physicists announced they had measured the strength of gravity on the smallest scale ever. In a clever tabletop experiment, researchers at Leiden University in the ...

The accelerating expansion of the universe is usually explained by an invisible force known as dark energy. But a new study suggests this mysterious ingredient may not be necessary after all. Using an ...
