Scientists show helium atoms can exist in two places at once, preserving quantum behavior even as they fall under gravity.

Waterloo scientists have developed a new way to understand how the universe began, and it could change what we know about the Big Bang and the earliest moments of cosmic history. Their work suggests ...

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

The collective gravity of countless neutrinos gently irons out the wrinkles in the cosmic web, preventing matter from ...

This hybrid platform enables a new class of experiments—ones that could finally let us test whether gravity needs to be described by quantum theory." The new paper demonstrates laser cooling of a ...

To live on the moon or Mars, humans will need heat and air conditioning that can operate long term in reduced gravity and temperatures hundreds of degrees above or below what we experience on Earth.

Jeff Bezos’ rocket company gave NASA a brief taste of the moon’s gravity Tuesday, without straying too far from home. Blue Origin launched the 29 lunar technology experiments to the edge of space from ...

A new discovery suggests gravitational fields can enable matter to become quantum entangled — and that's even if the concept of quantum gravity does not exist. The idea comes from two London-based ...
