European astronaut Thomas Pesquet testing ESA's lunar wheelbarrow during a parabolic flight simulating lunar gravity in a first-of-a-kind experiment. BORDEAUX, France — European scientists used a ...

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 ...

Astronomers have identified a tightly bound pair of stars that are spiraling toward a catastrophic merger, turning a distant stellar system into a natural laboratory for testing gravity at its most ...

Tiny but ageing neutrinos can be used to test the very foundations of quantum theory at unprecedented cosmological time scales Schrodinger’s skinniest kittens Must the Schrodinger’s Cat be fat enough ...

A team led by astronomer Margot Brouwer (Leiden Observatory, The Netherlands) has tested the new theory of theoretical physicist Erik Verlinde (University of Amsterdam) for the first time through the ...

In a cavernous lab in eastern China, a metal giant is quietly rewriting the rules of gravity. The country has brought online ...

Quantum physics is often described as the most successful scientific framework in history. In its 100 years of existence, it has explained everything from the periodic table of the elements to how ...

When I first got behind the wheel of the Lucid Gravity late last year, I was floored. But that test drive of a pre-production vehicle was also so rushed that it felt wrong to draw any real conclusions ...

In 2016, a team of French physicists sent an ultra-sensitive, drag-free satellite called MICROSCOPE into space to study a 100-year old theory of Einstein’s that could change everything we know about ...
