This new propulsion system could rewrite the rules of spaceflight—not to mention completely defy conventional physics.

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 ...

Quantum mechanical methods can now be used to study gravity. Scientists in Austria have developed a new measurement method that allows them to test the fundamental theories of physics. Quantum ...

Astronomers have found a clever new way to slice and dice the flickering light from a distant star in a way that reveals its surface gravity, one of the key properties that astronomers use to ...

UCLA researchers have found a new way to detect dark matter structures in the universe. Researchers found proof of small clusters of dark matter using a new gravity-based method to calculate the rate ...

Perception of gravity is essential for animals: most animals possess specific sense organs to detect the direction of the gravitational force. Little is known, however, about the molecular and neural ...
