You’ve seen rockets, you’ve seen spacewalks—but this is the side of space travel no one talks about. We break down the genius (and weird) tech behind space toilets.

Cats are famous for their ability to land on their feet, thanks to an extraordinary righting reflex, perfect balance, and flexible spines—a combination of biology and physics that scientists are ...

RainArt Productions Unveils 'The Effects of Gravity' Science and Art Show This live performance is set to take place at three distinguished venues in Kingston, Schenectady, and Homer.

Many solutions have been proposed to get to the elusive quantum gravity, and the latest one, proposed by Professor Ginestra Bianconi, uses the fascinating concept of entropy.

Scientists propose a relatively simple yet still complicated tabletop experiment to test the quantumness of gravity, aiming to reconcile general relativity and quantum mechanics.

Hula hooping is so commonplace that we may overlook some interesting questions it raises: 'What keeps a hula hoop up against gravity?' and 'Are some body types better for hula hooping than others ...

The Indian Ocean "gravity hole" is a fascinating anomaly in Earth's gravitational field, marked by a region where sea levels are 348 feet (106 meters) lower than average due to an unusually weak ...

That is, except for one big, neon-green brick in the uniform, rustic wall of physics—gravity. Gravity, as far as we have been able to prove, isn’t quantum, even though it theoretically should be.

Quantum physics and Einstein's theory of general relativity are the two pillars upon which our understanding of the Universe is based, each excelling in describing phenomena at its own scale. However, ...

A unified theory of gravity could be the key to solving other big questions in the universe as well—like how the Big Bang began or what makes up dark matter.

A modified theory of quantum gravity could solve one of the greatest enigmas of modern cosmology, according to a recent study. In 1929, Edwin Hubble discovered that the Universe was expanding. By ...

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 ...
