Social feeds are filling with breathless claims that on 8/12/26, Earth will briefly “turn off” gravity for seven seconds, ...

A rift runs deep through the heart of physics. The general theory of relativity, which describes gravity, clashes with quantum physics. In an effort to seal that physics fissure, untold numbers of ...

Assam scientists explore the Sun's movements, revealing how slight gravity changes can influence energy flow and stability.

A tiny, dense stellar corpse in a nearby galaxy is pumping out so much energy that, on paper, it should have blown itself ...

Flashes like Cherenkov radiation in space may reveal negative-energy ghosts, hinting at gaps in gravity theories.

What is NASA Project Anchor and can gravity blackout happen ever? A viral claim says Earth will lose gravity for seven ...

Wormholes are often imagined as tunnels through space or time—shortcuts across the universe. But this image rests on a ...

The accelerating expansion of the universe is usually explained by an invisible force known as dark energy. But a new study ...

A physicist has proposed a bold experiment that could allow gravitational waves to be manipulated using laser light. By transferring minute amounts of energy between light and gravity, the interaction ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

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 ...

Isaac Newton confessed that he had no idea what gravity was. The 17th century English polymath knew what it did, and he described it with a universal law of gravitation. But where the law came from, ...
