For nearly a century, astronomers have watched galaxies spin and the universe expand in ways that visible matter alone cannot ...

New simulations performed on a NASA supercomputer are providing scientists with the most comprehensive look yet into the maelstrom of interacting magnetic structures around city-sized neutron stars in ...

From the fall of an apple to the glow of the farthest known star, gravity quietly choreographs almost everything that happens ...

The triangle ain't equilateral. Also, I read the jar drawing as being constant speed, not constant acceleration. Each consecutive falling object is at a constant horizontal distance. At the small ...

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 ...

In a recent study published in Scientific Reports, researchers explored how nutrition knowledge, physical strength and activity, and body composition are related to whether Air Force cadets lose ...

(Phys.org)—Although quantum theory can explain three of the four forces in nature, scientists currently rely on general relativity to explain the fourth force, gravity. However, no one is quite sure ...
