A team of physicists have proposed a new idea for uniting quantum mechanics and gravity, which they believe could explain the ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. The nearby Andromeda galaxy with older stars highlighted in blue. A new theory of quantum gravity could help explain why more ...

For decades, astronomers have been puzzled by strange “zebra stripe” patterns in radio waves from the Crab Pulsar — bright bands separated by complete darkness. Now, new research suggests the answer ...

Since conventional explanations have failed to pony up dark matter, one physicist is looking towards the unconventional. In a series of two papers, physicist Stefano Profumo of the University of ...

Gravity is a basic force that affects everything we experience. Watch as a flat earther attempts to explain it without using gravity at all. The explanation starts confidently, then slowly shifts as ...

Unifying gravity and quantum theory remains a significant goal in modern physics. Despite the success in unifying all other fundamental interactions (electromagnetism, strong force and weak force) ...

A view of the central region of the Perseus galaxy cluster, one of the most massive objects in the universe, shows the ...

Spacecrafts don’t just rely on rockets—they use planets to pick up speed! Spacecrafts don’t just rely on rockets—they use planets to pick up speed! It’s called a gravity assist, and it’s one of the ...
