Zero gravity, often depicted in science fiction and space documentaries, is a fascinating concept that sparks curiosity and wonder. Commonly misunderstood, zero gravity is not the absence 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 ...

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 ...

Leonardo da Vinci’s understanding of gravity, while not completely accurate, was “centuries ahead of his time”, according to a new study that reasessed sketches in the Italian polymath’s old notebooks ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
