Gravity has become an unlikely viral villain, blamed for an imagined global blackout in which the planet briefly lets go of ...

We experience the flow of time because it’s a natural outcome of the basic laws of physics. But we may need to build a whole ...

From the fall of an apple to the glow of the farthest known star, gravity quietly choreographs almost everything that happens ...

Quantum mechanics has always carried a quiet tension. At its core, the theory allows particles to exist in many states at ...

In an effort to bring together the domains of gravity and quantum theory, Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen proposed a ...

A viral conspiracy theory suggesting that the Earth will lose gravity for seven seconds in August this year has left people ...

A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.

This puzzle is known as the problem of time, and it remains one of the most persistent obstacles to a unified theory of ...

Exploring the BTZ black hole in (2+1)-dimensional gravity took me down a fascinating rabbit hole, connecting ideas I never expected—like black holes and topological phases in quantum matter! When I ...

A team of researchers led by the University of Warwick has developed the first unified framework for detecting "spacetime ...

As my arms lift from my sides, and the rest of my body follows suit toward the ceiling of a modified Boeing 727—next to scientists, astronauts, engineers and activists—I think, “How did I get here?” I ...
