Scientists in Wales have built the world’s most sensitive table-top interferometer, which is a miniature, ultra-precise ...

Exploring the BTZ black hole in (2+1)-dimensional gravity took me down a fascinating rabbit hole, connecting ideas I never expected—like black holes and topological phases in quantum matter! When I ...

Physicists hope that understanding the churning region near singularities might help them reconcile gravity and quantum mechanics. At the beginning of time and the center of every black hole lies a ...

A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.

One way to longer life may be higher gravity—at least for rats. That is the “very tentative suggestion” of experiments performed by NASA Physiologist Jiro Oyama, who has been raising mice and rats ...

“You can’t beat the view,” astronaut George Clooney says to NASA scientist Sandra Bullock as they gaze from their space station at the Earth, 372 miles below. Gravity enjoyed a similarly lofty view ...

Researchers have discovered there was an anomaly in Earth's gravitational field between 2006 and 2008, potentially caused by ...

In moments of emergency, super-concentration, or meditation, people report moments of “time expansion experiences,” or ...

Two blind spots torture physicists: the birth of the universe and the center of a black hole. The former may feel like a moment in time and the latter a point in space, but in both cases the normally ...

The concept of anti-gravity has long fascinated scientists, engineers, and the public, straddling the line between science fiction and serious scientific exploration. At its essence, anti-gravity ...

If you wave your hand in front of your face, you won’t notice anything particularly interesting. Perhaps a gentle waft of air against your cheek – that’s about it. No epiphany. No major sign that ...

Orienspace's Gravity-1, the world's most powerful solid-fuel rocket, launched from the deck of a ship in the Yellow Sea on ...
