Physicists have long suspected that gravity might have a hidden quantum side, but for decades the idea has been more mathematics than measurement. A new proposal for a tabletop experiment now suggests ...

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 ...

Is gravity a result of differences in informational density? Or is this theory too far out there to address all the issues present in modern physics? Here, we take a look at a recent proposal that ...

Let’s talk about quantum gravity experiments that can be done here on Earth! If we discover how to connect quantum mechanics with general relativity we’ll pretty much win physics. There are multiple ...

The researchers say their experiment was inspired by a levitating frog. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. Chinese scientists have ...

The power of gravity is writ large across our visible universe. It can be seen in the lock step of moons as they circle planets; in wandering comets pulled off-course by massive stars; and in the ...

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 ...

The secret to directly detecting dark matter might be blowin’ in the wind. The mysterious substance continues to elude scientists even though it outweighs visible matter in the universe by about 8 to ...

There was a secret inside the envelope in the hands of Stephan Schlamminger, one of the world’s leading experts in experimental tests of gravity. He appeared to be on the verge of opening the envelope ...

Matter and antimatter behave the same way under the influence of gravity, a new study found, leaving scientists no wiser as to what makes the two different. Antimatter is the puzzling stuff created ...
