Scientists have made a groundbreaking discovery in the realm of physics: a material exhibiting antigravity properties. This discovery has the potential to revolutionize our understanding of gravity ...
For over a century, Einstein's general theory of relativity has been key to understanding gravity. But new research suggests this theory "glitches" in the farthest reaches of space. That doesn't mean ...
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 ...
James is a published author with multiple pop-history and science books to his name. He specializes in history, space, strange science, and anything out of the ordinary.View full profile James is a ...
Physicists have chased a unified description of nature for more than a century, yet quantum theory and gravity have ...
Einstein’s general theory of relativity is a tool kit for solving problems involving gravity that connects mass and energy with deformations in spacetime. In turn, those spacetime deformations ...
We probably think we know gravity pretty well. After all, we have more conscious experience with this fundamental force than with any of the others (electromagnetism and the weak and strong nuclear ...
In a study published in Physical Review Letters, physicists have demonstrated that black holes satisfy the third law of thermodynamics, which states that entropy remains positive and vanishes at ...
To understand gravity, Einstein had to rethink space and time as a single connected fabric. He showed that mass bends this fabric, guiding how everything moves. NOVA is available to stream on pbs.org ...
Early on in science classes all over the world, students drop diverse things to learn how gravity works and how outside forces might affect the rate of fall. But the science of falling goes well ...
We learn more about Modified Newtonian Dynamics aka MOND. What if there is no such thing as dark matter? What if our understanding of gravity is just wrong? New work is taking another shot at that ...
What if dark matter didn’t exist? Sure, scientists have never observed it, but they believe it exists because of apparent gravitational effects. But what if our current understanding of gravity was ...
