That disk pulled more dust and gases into the center due to a force called gravity. Eventually, the pressure at the core of the disk was so strong that the materials fused together, releasing ...

If it’s true, this work could have ramifications for some of the biggest mysteries of the universe, including learning where ...

A sewer line is being installed on both sides of the street and the road is a “rough ride.” Amy Bentley shares more.

On large scales, the main force governing objects is gravity, described by general relativity. But when trying to reconcile these two models together, scientists have fallen short; quantum ...

Gravity applies an effective force of mutual attraction to things with inertial mass, including physical matter and photons. The force of gravity is transmitted through spacetime at the speed of ...

The universe isn’t just growing—it’s speeding up as it does. That discovery stunned scientists, upending long-held ideas ...

Gravity is the only major force in the universe that doesn’t fit into our current quantum framework, driving the pursuit of a grand unified theory of physics. The new test would not be proof or ...

Physicist Melvin Vopson proposes gravity might emerge from cosmic information processing, hinting the universe runs on a ...

I’m out over the Gulf of Mexico in G-Force One, a vintage Boeing 727 that belongs to the Zero Gravity Corporation. The plane, which provides scientists and thrill-seekers with the chance to ...

The team’s discovery revealed that hydrogen ions are subjected to an outward force from this field that’s an astounding 10.6 times stronger than gravity. NASA “This field is so fundamental ...
