For more than a century, gravity has been the immovable backdrop of modern physics, a force that can be described and ...

Wide binary stars with separation greater than about 2000 astronomical units are interesting natural laboratories that allow a direct probe of gravity at low acceleration weaker than about 1 nanometer ...

This new propulsion system could rewrite the rules of spaceflight—not to mention completely defy conventional physics.

Researchers are developing a new technique to help visualize the complex internal layering and anomalous structures inside planetary bodies, including the Moon. Credit: NGC 54/Wikimedia, CC BY-SA 4.0 ...

Quantum mechanical methods can now be used to study gravity. Scientists in Austria have developed a new measurement method that allows them to test the fundamental theories of physics. Quantum ...

Astronomers have found a clever new way to slice and dice the flickering light from a distant star in a way that reveals its surface gravity, one of the key properties that astronomers use to ...

UCLA researchers have found a new way to detect dark matter structures in the universe. Researchers found proof of small clusters of dark matter using a new gravity-based method to calculate the rate ...
