(via PBS Space Time) To observe the quantum nature of gravity and of spacetime itself, we need a particle collider the size of the solar system. Or we could just physics smarter and build one on a lab ...
For more than a century, physics has been built on two great theories. Einstein's general relativity explains gravity as the bending of space and time. Quantum mechanics governs the world of particles ...
Another near-term application is the quantum gravity gradiometer being developed by the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center.
