Gravity is a ubiquitous part of our daily lives — whether we’re being tragically brought to our knees after tripping on the rug or gleefully jumping from a swing’s apex. But despite how common the ...

Gravity is usually presented as the most familiar of nature’s forces, the quiet background pull that keeps feet on sidewalks ...

An astrophysicist has shown that gravity may be able to exist without mass, a theory that suggests dark matter may not be necessary to explain phenomena observed in our universe. Dark matter is a ...

Gear-obsessed editors choose every product we review. We may earn commission if you buy from a link. Why Trust Us? Scientists have proposed a new test to hopefully help shed some light on quantum ...

Of the four fundamental forces of physics, gravity is the one we’re most familiar with in everyday life, but it’s also the only one that can’t currently be explained by quantum physics. Now scientists ...

In a bold step toward solving one of science’s most puzzling problems, researchers have proposed a new way to bring gravity into the same mathematical language as the other forces of nature. While the ...

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is described extremely well by quantum theory, while the world of gravitation ...

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. An image of a black hole surrounded by matter. Does the secret of quantum gravity lie around ...

If you’re superstitious, a black cat in your path is bad luck, even if you keep your distance. Likewise, in quantum physics, particles can feel the influence of magnetic fields that they never come ...

Physicists are still chasing the dream of Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking to capture the workings of the entire universe in a single equation. When you purchase through links on our site, we may ...
