READING, Pennsylvania -- Every other Sunday, it's race day on High Street's hill in the Antietam Valley, with cars vying for position before they cross the finish line. The group holding the races is ...

The long-range influence of gravity, despite its comparative weakness, stems from its inverse-square law, where its flux remains constant over arbitrary distances due to the compensatory increase in ...

As the story goes, mathematician Sir Isaac Newton was sitting in an orchard after supper when he saw an apple fall from a tree. He wondered why apples always fall straight to the ground, instead of ...

"By understanding quantum gravity, we could solve some of the mysteries of our universe — like how it began, what happens inside black holes, or uniting all forces into one big theory." When you ...

A device that can measure the gravitational force on a particle that weighs less than a grain of pollen could help us understand how gravity works in the quantum world. Despite keeping you stuck to ...

New research conducted by nuclear physicists is using a method that connects theories of gravitation to interactions among the smallest particles of matter. The result is insight into the strong force ...

Scientists have discovered that dark matter, the universe's most mysterious "stuff," obeys gravity on vast cosmological scales. This could help to dismiss the possibility of a fifth fundamental force ...
