Researchers studied how plants search for water when soil becomes dry. Plants normally grow roots downward due to gravity.

One of the most profound open questions in modern physics is: "Is gravity quantum?" The other fundamental ...

An exhaustive examination of lunar gravity using data obtained by two NASA robotic spacecraft is offering new clues about why ...

Breakthroughs in science often begin with a simple question and years of tireless exploration. From the way tiny molecules ...

A bold new quantum theory of gravity may finally bridge the long-standing rift between Einstein’s general relativity and quantum field theory. This potential "Theory of Everything" could answer some o ...

Lead author Partanen expects that within a few years, the findings will have unlocked critical understanding. 'If this turns out to lead to a complete quantum field theory of gravity, then ...

At long last, a unified theory combining gravity with the other fundamental forces—electromagnetism and the strong and weak nuclear forces—is within ...

A new theoretical proposal suggests scrapping nearly everything we think we know about gravity in order to understand the ...
