Though spacecraft with artificial gravity are still a distant dream, we had proof of concept way back in September 1966.

Gravity has become an unlikely viral villain, blamed for an imagined global blackout in which the planet briefly lets go of everything that is not nailed down. At the same time, some of the most ...

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 ...

WASHINGTON, May 14 (Reuters) - An exhaustive examination of lunar gravity using data obtained by two NASA robotic spacecraft is offering new clues about why the two sides of the moon - the one ...

We all know gravity as the invisible force that keeps us grounded. But what if it's not a force at all? What if it's a function? One physicist believes gravity might actually be one of the strongest ...

A vast “gravity hole” beneath Antarctica became stronger as the continent shifted into an ice-dominated world tens of millions of years ago, according to new research published in Scientific Reports.

The Juno spacecraft now orbiting Jupiter has a suite of science instruments which will investigate the existence of a possible solid planetary core, map Jupiter’s intense magnetic field, measure the ...

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 ...
