In this video, I put gravity and friction to the test with a simple classroom experiment. When I tilt the table, you'll ...
Just over a week ago, European physicists announced they had measured the strength of gravity on the smallest scale ever. In a clever tabletop experiment, researchers at Leiden University in the ...
We are all bobbing in a sea of ripples in space-time, called gravitational waves, reverberating through the fabric of the universe, scientists announced on Wednesday. Those ripples are probably the ...

COLUMBIA, S.C. — We have two holidays to celebrate this week - Saint Patrick’s Day and the start of spring. Today’s experiment ties in both of those holidays. The experiment, sometimes called "walking ...
Quantum physical experiments exploring the motion of macroscopic or heavy bodies under gravitational forces require protection from any environmental noise and highly efficient sensing. An ideal ...
A new way to fly experiments takes off tomorrow with the first campaign dedicated to research in ‘partial’ gravity. Scientists on Europe’s ‘Zero-G’ Airbus will experiment with gravity conditions like ...
It is now thought that the source of this anomaly was a phase transition in which one mineral’s structure was altered.
According to legend, Galileo dropped weights off the Leaning Tower of Pisa, showing that gravity causes objects of different masses to fall with the same acceleration. In recent years, researchers ...
When incredibly massive objects collide violently in space, they send out ripples in space-time that reverberate through the cosmos for billions of years. Long after the collisions happen, these ...
Scientists review research on gravitational wave detectors as a historical example of quantum technologies and examine the fundamental research on the connection between quantum physics and gravity.
