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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

NASA once sent over 2,000 jellyfish into space to study how gravity affects biological development. The unusual experiment ...

Physics is filled with mysteries – and, believe it or not, gravity remains one of them. We rely on gravity to explain things large and small. But at a fundamental level, we still don’t fully ...

GENEVA, SWITZERLAND—Physics tells us that a hammer and a feather, dropped in a vacuum, will fall at the same rate—as famously demonstrated by an Apollo 15 astronaut on the Moon. Now, CERN scientists ...

For more than a century, gravity has been the stubborn outlier in physics, resisting every attempt to be folded neatly into the quantum rules that govern the rest of nature. Now a convergence of bold ...

Gravity's impact on bone cells—experiments heading to the International Space Station Mechanical engineers at the University of Michigan are tackling mysteries of bone density loss in space and on ...
