A rewrite of quantum mechanics that includes the force of gravity could finally achieve one of physicists’ biggest goals and ...

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 ...

Big G, gravity, is the oldest fundamental constant in physics and the least clearly defined. One scientist has spent a decade ...

This new propulsion system could rewrite the rules of spaceflight—not to mention completely defy conventional physics.

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 ...

For more than a century, gravity has been the stubborn outlier in physics, resisting every attempt to merge Einstein’s smooth space-time with the jittery world of quantum mechanics. A new wave of ...

If you want to understand gravity, it makes sense to study black holes. Nowhere else can you find so much gravity so conveniently compacted into such a relatively small space. In a way, in fact, black ...
