European scientists are turning an aircraft into a laboratory that simulates lunar gravity to prepare astronauts and ...

In 1797 Henry Cavendish, one of Great Britain’s leading scientists, built a contraption to weigh the world. At the time, Earth’s mass was unknown, as was its composition. Was it mostly solid rock? Did ...

Albert Einstein may have been right that gravity travels at the same speed as light but, contrary to a claim made earlier this year, the theory has not yet been proven. A scientist at Lawrence ...

For decades, physicists have been hunting for a quantum-gravity model that would unify quantum physics, the laws that govern the very small, and gravity. One major obstacle has been the difficulty in ...

COAST THAT CAN TRAIN PEOPLE TO LIVE AND WORK IN DIFFERENT LEVELS OF GRAVITY. IT IS CRITICAL TRAINING FOR ASTRONAUT, BUT THIS FACILITY HAS A BROADER REACH. WESH 2 SPACE COAST BUREAU CHIEF SCOTT HEIDLER ...

Today, Zero Gravity Corporation (ZERO-G) announced the establishment of the ZERO-G WEIGHTLESS LAB. The specially designed two-day program provides the only commercial access to Martian, Lunar, zero ...

Physicists should rethink interference experiments to reveal whether or not general relativity follows classical theory, argue Chiara Marletto and Vlatko Vedral. Sixty years ago, physicists ...

South of the German city of Koblenz, the river Rhine narrows over a stretch of 30 miles, forcing its already strong current to increase. Speckled with underwater rocks, this route was once a risky ...

An international team of astronomers using the Green Bank Telescope (GBT) has discovered a pulsar that is orbited by two white dwarf stars. Pulsars are rapidly rotating neutron stars that can be used ...
