Physicists have directly observed a long-predicted quantum effect of gravity, putting one of Einstein’s foundational ideas to ...

Scientists have spotted the first hints that Einstein's formulation of gravity operates in the quantum realm.

An Einsteinian view of gravity, a curvature in spacetime caused by mass and energy. (ESA/C.Carreau) Quantum mechanics and ...

Quantum mechanics and Einstein’s theory of gravity explain almost everything we see in nature, yet physicists still do not know how to unite them. A new theoretical framework suggests that some ...

We take part in a real zero gravity science flight. This is not tourism but an actual research campaign with the European Space Agency and NASA. For short moments, gravity disappears completely. We ...

The best way to find buried treasure may be with a quantum gravity sensor. In these devices, free-falling atoms reveal subtle variations in Earth’s gravitational pull at different places. Those ...

A viral rumour predicts Earth losing gravity in 2026, but scientists say only a routine eclipse awaits. How did the claim spread, and why are experts pushing back now?

An international team including Nobel Prize-winning physicist Professor Sir Roger Penrose has observed a long-predicted effect of gravity on a falling quantum object for the first time. The result ...
