A persistent "gravity hole" beneath Antarctica gives scientists a window into Earth's deep interior, showing how processes ...

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.

A group of researchers at the University of Waterloo and the University of British Columbia have discovered a potential "cosmic glitch" in the universe's gravity, explaining its strange behavior on a ...

Isaac Newton formulated his theory of gravity as an action at a distance: a planet instantly feels the influence of another celestial body, no matter the distance between them. This characteristic ...

Spacecrafts don’t just rely on rockets—they use planets to pick up speed! Spacecrafts don’t just rely on rockets—they use planets to pick up speed! It’s called a gravity assist, and it’s one of the ...

Scientists have finally explained the Indian Ocean Geoid Low, a massive gravity anomaly south of India. New research reveals this 'gravity hole' formed over millions of years due to hot, less dense ...

Physics is filled with mysteries – and, believe it or not, gravity remains one of them. We rely on gravity to explain things large and small. But at a fundamental level, we still don’t fully ...

The accelerating expansion of the universe could be explained by modifying general relativity so that gravity has mass – or so thinks a small group of physicists. Matthew Francis reports What lies ...

One of the lesser known facts about me is that I’m one of the few world experts on anti-gravity. That’s because 20 years ago I was convinced that repulsive gravity could explain some of the puzzling ...
