The two stars in the nearby system ZTF J2130 are spiraling toward a catastrophic supernova. In the meantime, scientists are using the pair's slow orbital decay to put Einstein's theory of gravity to ...

Massive stones, no machines, and echoes of a lost science—did ancient builders use sound to lift the impossible? From Giza to Nan Madol, the clues point to acoustic levitation as more than just myth.

As physicists search for a theory of quantum gravity, new results show that classical gravity can still interact with quantum fields to allow matter to become entangled. When you purchase through ...

You may have heard people say that aboard the International Space Station (ISS) there's "zero gravity," but in fact, gravity is still very much present. The station orbits Earth at an altitude of ...

A global race is underway to find long-term energy storage solutions, with venture capital investing heavily in new technologies beyond the current lithium-ion battery dominance. Researchers at the ...

Canadian researchers are developing a system that turns high-rise buildings into gravity-powered energy storage units. By lifting heavy blocks during the day with solar and wind power and lowering ...

Researchers in Canada have proposed using gravity-based energy storage in high-rise buildings, in combination with photovoltaic facades, small wind turbines, and lithium-ion batteries. Their modeling ...

At-a-Glance: Heavy oil is a dense, viscous petroleum fluid (typically 10–22 °API) enriched in resins/asphaltenes with low gas content, formed when originally lighter oils are altered after charge by ...

Gravity is the unseen force that shapes the universe, yet we rarely give it much thought. First explained by Sir Isaac Newton, it is the pull that draws objects toward one another based on their mass ...

There are several ways to search the web in Apple's Safari browser. In this article, we're going to highlight a way of searching specific websites using a lesser-known Safari feature called Quick ...

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. An image of a black hole surrounded by matter. Does the secret of quantum gravity lie around ...

A new probe in development known as GIRO represents a low-cost step toward unlocking the secrets of the outer planets, all through the invisible pull of gravity. When you purchase through links on our ...
