A recent study proposes that gravity, the force shaping galaxies and anchoring planets, might not be fundamental after all.

A variation on the theory of quantum gravity — the unification of quantum mechanics and Einstein's general relativity — could help solve one of the biggest puzzles in cosmology, new research suggests.

The accelerating expansion of the universe is usually explained by an invisible force known as dark energy. But a new study ...

A new theory suggests that the unification between quantum physics and general relativity has eluded scientists for 100 years because huge "fluctuations" in space and time mean that gravity won't play ...

A recent study has investigated teleparallel gravity and its potential to resolve tension surrounding the expansion of the universe in a way that general relativity can't. In the early 20th century, ...

Could the universe have hidden dimensions we’ve yet to detect? The idea of extra dimensions has intrigued physicists for over a century, and while there’s no solid evidence to prove their existence, ...

Legend has it that Isaac Newton had the moment of inspiration that would lead to his theory of gravity when, on a warm afternoon, he saw an apple fall from a tree and wondered why it should fall down ...

Geologists have long been captivated by the Indian Ocean's "gravity hole," where the Earth's gravitational pull weakens, its mass falls, and sea levels drop by about 328 feet (100 meters). After years ...
