When LIGO detected gravitational waves unleashed from two colliding black holes for the first time in science history, it set off a whole new era in astronomy.

Early scientific theories—such as those explaining basic phenomena like gravity, burning, and the movement of molecules in ...

Scientists have spent decades trying to understand how gravity operates at its most basic scale. However, no theory has come close to fully explaining it. Now, though, a new theory could finally give ...

Program to Inspire Kids to Pursue Math and Science Kicks Off On Aug. 28 With First of 16 Microgravity Flights Scheduled in Eight Cities High School Musical 2’s Corbin Bleu to Experience Zero Gravity ...

Earth's airglow at the edge of space. Bossert and Berkheimer/ASU For decades, scientists have studied the seasonal dynamics of upper-atmosphere weather that causes atmospheric waves using imagery and ...

A gene called IBSH1 helped spreading earthmoss thrive at high gravity, hinting at how plants adapted to photosynthesize on land.

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 ...

Gravity is the force of action between two objects. It’s called a natural force because it acts at a distance rather than needing to be in contact. Gravity is the force that holds us down on Earth and ...

The concept of anti-gravity has captivated both scientists and dreamers for centuries, igniting imaginations and inspiring groundbreaking innovations. Although the term ‘anti-gravity’ frequently ...

Solar eclipses don’t just look cool – they can send gravity waves rippling through Earth’s atmosphere like dropping a stone in a pond. An international team of students has measured these gravity ...
