Casting a swirling shadow, a glowing candle flame sways eerily before flaring up once more. As ghostly as it looks, this ...

Undated -- Imagine being onboard that first human expedition to Mars. Representing all of humankind you take your historical one small step, one giant leap onto the surface, only to find your legs ...

NASA is calling on college undergraduates interested in performing reduced gravity experiments onboard the agency’s “Weightless Wonder” aircraft to submit their proposals by Monday, Oct. 30. The ...

Leonardo da Vinci's centuries-old sketches reveal he may have understood key aspects of gravity long before Galileo, Newton and Einstein. A recent study from the California Institute of Technology ...

Scientists are inching closer to answering one of physics’ most fundamental questions: is gravity quantum in nature? Among the four fundamental forces that govern our Universe, gravity remains the odd ...

While this may complicate the quest for a clear experimental signature of quantum gravity, it does not render such tests useless. According to the research team, both classical and quantum models of ...

Monisha Ravisetti was a science writer at CNET. She covered climate change, space rockets, mathematical puzzles, dinosaur bones, black holes, supernovas, and sometimes, the drama of philosophical ...

In a development at the intersection of quantum mechanics and general relativity, researchers have made significant strides toward unraveling the mysteries of quantum gravity. This work sheds new ...

Unifying gravity and quantum theory remains a significant goal in modern physics. Despite the success in unifying all other ...

Jeff Bezos’ rocket company gave NASA a brief taste of the moon’s gravity Tuesday, without straying too far from home. Blue Origin launched the 29 lunar technology experiments to the edge of space from ...
