Newton was able to show that his universal law agreed with these three laws. His gravity could explain a falling apple, the motion of the moon, and the rest of the objects in the solar system.

Legend has it that Isaac Newton had the moment of inspiration that would lead to his theory of gravity when, on a warm ...

But gravity — that invisible force that draws ... Isaac Newton was sitting in an orchard after supper when he saw an apple fall from a tree. He wondered why apples always fall straight to ...

The English scientist, mathematician and philosopher Sir Isaac Newton discovered gravity. Newton saw an apple fall from a tree and began to think that there must be a force that exists ...

let's think about that apocryphal falling apple. When it is hanging on a branch, it is stationary, so when it drops, gravity pulls it straight down. Suppose, though, that you pick the fallen apple ...

is the documentation of how Newton's theory of gravity came to be. The story of Newton's apple-tree revelation has become folklore in the past 250 years, complete with embellishments and twists of ...

We all know an apple will fall down because of the Earth's gravity. But what about an "anti-apple"? For the first time, scientists have "dropped" antimatter in the form of anti-hydrogen atoms ...

A sensor made from extremely cold atoms can detect forces as small as a millionth septillionth of the gravitational force on an apple falling from a tree. It could help reveal the existence of ...
