Project is led by the country’s second civilian astronaut working with researchers on the ground to look at ways to improve ...

China has built a machine that treats gravity like a dial, not a constant, turning the pull we feel on our bodies into a ...

For more than a century, gravity has been the stubborn outlier in physics, resisting every attempt to be folded neatly into the quantum rules that govern the rest of nature. Now a convergence of bold ...

GALVESTON, Texas — When the Apollo 11 crew got back from the moon 40 years ago this week, they showed no ill effects from seven days spent in weightlessness. But as American astronauts and Soviet ...

Let’s talk about quantum gravity experiments that can be done here on Earth! If we discover how to connect quantum mechanics with general relativity we’ll pretty much win physics. There are multiple ...

To live on the moon or Mars, humans will need heat and air conditioning that can operate long term in reduced gravity and temperatures hundreds of degrees above or below what we experience on Earth.

There was a secret inside the envelope in the hands of Stephan Schlamminger, one of the world’s leading experts in experimental tests of gravity. He appeared to be on the verge of opening the envelope ...
