A new theory of quantum gravity, which attempts to unite quantum physics with Einstein's relativity, could help solve the puzzle of the universe's expansion, a theoretical paper suggests. When you ...

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) collaboration, which includes researchers from the University of Toronto, recently produced the clearest images yet of the universe’s infancy from the earliest ...

A team of scientists led by expert Raúl Jiménez, ICREA researcher at the University of Barcelona's Institute of Cosmos Sciences (ICCUB), in collaboration with the University of Padua (Italy), has ...

A new theory suggests that the unification between quantum physics and general relativity has eluded scientists for 100 years because huge "fluctuations" in space and time mean that gravity won't play ...

Extra dimensions may be required to explain how gravity worked in the early universe — and led to the conditions we experience today. This is the conclusion of a pair of researchers from Japan, who ...

An ancient spear-throwing tool enabled prehistoric hunters to boost the distance they could launch a feathered projectile – but the unexpected negative effects of gravity on the tool may explain why ...

Matt Charman, the Oscar-nominated screenwriter of “Bridge of Spies,” is adapting the science-fiction graphic novel “A Radical Shift of Gravity” into a feature film. Todd Lieberman’s production company ...
