For more than 300 years, humanity has trusted one simple idea to explain why planets orbit stars, why apples fall, and why galaxies stay together. That idea came from Isaac Newton and his universal ...

The motion of galaxy clusters in the distant Universe has just yielded the largest-scale test yet of the laws of gravity. Across scales that span hundreds of millions of light-years, gravity continues ...

An international team of astrophysicists has made a puzzling discovery while analyzing certain star clusters. The finding challenges Newton's laws of gravity, the researchers write in their ...

Scientists from around the world have reconstructed the laws of gravity, to help get a more precise picture of the universe and its constitution. The standard model of cosmology is based on General ...

A unique geographical feature exists near Kenya’s capital of Nairobi where the laws of gravity don’t seem to apply. Things go up when they should go down. The world is full of unique and wonderful ...

Gravity, as most people understand it, is the familiar force that pulls a falling apple toward Earth. But for astronomers and theoretical physicists, it is also a vexing invisible architect that ...

Scientists have reconstructed gravity to find a more robust way of understanding the cosmos. Scientists from around the world have reconstructed the laws of gravity, to help get a more precise picture ...

There are old laws that have been broken and new laws of physics that might break today. Learn more about the laws of physics and why it’s sometimes okay if they’re proven wrong. First off, the word ...

Gravity may not be a fundamental force of nature, but a byproduct of the universe streamlining information like a cosmic computer. Reading time 3 minutes We have long taken it for granted that gravity ...
