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

This NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope Picture of the Month brings us a scene from the distant universe. Pictured here ...

Essentially, the quantum metric creates a “geometric” drag on the electrons. When the magnetic field is applied, it breaks the time-reversal symmetry, revealing this hidden geometry by causing the ...

A group of researchers have made a shocking discovery about one of the most fundamental forces in our universe. According to a new paper, which is set to publish in Physics of the Dark Universe next ...

Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still daring to test it. Some theories of quantum gravity suggest light might ...

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. An illustration shows a CT scan of the universe with "slices" of the cosmos as it evolves. | ...

Scientists in Japan have managed to manipulate light as though it was being influenced by gravity. By carefully distorting a photonic crystal, the team was able to invoke “pseudogravity” to bend a ...

Newton's theory of gravity posited instantaneous gravitational attraction, successfully predicting planetary orbits. Einstein's special relativity challenged this, necessitating the development of ...

A University of Texas at Dallas physicist and his international colleagues in the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) collaboration are engaged in a multiyear data-gathering mission to try to ...
