The proposed BMV experiment could test whether gravity is quantum, a breakthrough that may lead to quantum computers and ...

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 ...

New claims challenge inconsistencies in one of the foundational principles of physics. Albert Einstein postulated in his 1905 ...

Despite dozens of experiments over the years, scientists still don't have a precise measurement for gravity's strength. Why is that?

A physics question about falling, gravity, and acceleration, explained through a simple science experiment.

What happens to soft matter when gravity disappears? To answer this, UvA physicists launched a fluid dynamics experiment on a sounding rocket. The suborbital rocket reached an altitude of 267 km ...

The best way to find buried treasure may be with a quantum gravity sensor. In these devices, free-falling atoms reveal subtle variations in Earth’s gravitational pull at different places. Those ...

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 ...
