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 new model to account for gravity’s influence.
Every time a coffee mug drops, a satellite orbits or an astronaut floats, we are watching the same phenomenon play out under ...
Gravity is supposed to be the most familiar force in nature, yet at the deepest level it remains the least understood. A bold ...
It was quite a leap. Conspiracy theorists are being brought back down to Earth after NASA scientists debunked a wild claim ...
There are some things in life that just sort of happen. Desks get covered in dust and scraps of paper. Clothes get dirty and the laundry basket fills up. Weeds slowly creep across an untended ...
The accelerating expansion of the universe is usually explained by an invisible force known as dark energy. But a new study ...
Social media is flooded with claims that Earth will briefly lose gravity next year. From ‘Project Anchor’ to black holes, ...
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 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 ...
