Most of us take gravity for granted. You jump, you fall down to earth. It’s pretty simple, right? Well, in some places on ...

As they whirl around in low-Earth orbit, satellite configurations are far more sensitive to changes in Earth's gravity field ...

Legend has it that Isaac Newton had the moment of inspiration that would lead to his theory of gravity when, on a warm afternoon, he saw an apple fall from a tree and wondered why it should fall down ...

You may have seen videos of astronauts jumping on the moon. Their movements appear bouncier and lighter than how we move on Earth, and this is thanks to gravity. Gravity is "the force by which a ...

People can own a piece of Isaac Newton's home as part of a conservation project. It is claimed the scientist, born at ...

The idea of emergent gravity is still new and requires a lot of assumptions in its calculations to make it work. But if experimental evidence ever proves it real, we would need to totally rewrite the ...

"This work is a step toward understanding how quantum mechanics and gravity work together, a major unsolved problem in physics." The first step toward quantum gravity, the "holy grail of physics," may ...

Keeping an orbiting satellite in the proper attitude is no mean trick. But there are times when antennas and cameras have to be kept pointing continually at the earth if they are to work effectively, ...

Harpist Mary Lattimore had some thank-yous to make. Onstage at an event space in the Rockwell on the River complex, on the cusp of Lake View and Avondale, she paused her delicately looping set to ...
