It's well known that spaceflight causes muscle atrophy and other biological changes in reduced gravity, and especially in ...

The “gravity hole” formed at least 70 million years ago after convection in Earth’s mantle. The weak gravity could impact our ...

Dr Charles Buhler takes people through his lab in a new video. He explains more about how they developed and detected a new force from large electrostatic pressure differences. They claim this force ...

Pushed down to a certain scale, the laws of physics seem to fall apart. Astrid Eichhorn, a leader in an area of study called asymptotic safety, thinks we just need to push a little further.

Everything in the universe has gravity — and feels it too. Yet this most common of all fundamental forces is also the one that presents the biggest challenges to physicists. Albert Einstein’s theory ...

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 new model to account for gravity’s influence.

All fundamental forces operating on astronomical scales exhibit a decrease in strength with increasing distance. A hypothetical force, decreasing with distance slower than the inverse square law, ...

The Sun is not nailed to the center of the solar system. It moves, wobbles, and traces a small loop through space, tugged by ...
