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 ...

European astronaut Thomas Pesquet testing ESA's lunar wheelbarrow during a parabolic flight simulating lunar gravity in a first-of-a-kind experiment. BORDEAUX, France — European scientists used a ...

One of the biggest challenges to prepare people and equipment to operate on the moon is gravity. Gravity on the lunar surface is one-sixth of what we experience on Earth. All personnel and equipment ...

A team led by astronomer Margot Brouwer (Leiden Observatory, The Netherlands) has tested the new theory of theoretical physicist Erik Verlinde (University of Amsterdam) for the first time through the ...

WASHINGTON — NASA is looking for new technologies that have potential use in future agency projects which could benefit from testing during flights on an airplane that simulates the weightless ...

If the universe contains more than three spatial dimensions, as many physicists believe, our current laws of gravity should break down at small distances Nothing seems more certain than the “fact” ...
