New research shows how small meniscus changes control liquid waves in low gravity, helping spacecraft systems run lighter.

Generations of researchers have tried to create a quantum theory of gravity, and their work has produced sophisticated ...

As humanity ventures further into space, creating sustainable living conditions is becoming increasingly important. Recent ...

Step into the fascinating science behind Interstellar as we explore the extreme effects of time dilation near a black hole.

Once again, physicists have confirmed one of Albert Einstein's core ideas about gravity — this time with the help of a neutron star flashing across space.

In 2022, SATED was put to the test aboard a zero-gravity parabolic flight to prove it would work in outer space. University students worked as “simunauts” to determine how easy it was for ...

Crew members with hearing, visual and mobility impairments tested accessibility features on Thursday while aboard an aircraft that simulated a zero-gravity environment at an altitude of 25,000 feet.

A team of physicists has proposed a clever plan to concoct a quantum theory of gravity: refine an age-old technique, and use it to probe the tiniest scales in the universe.

An extreme pair of superdense stars orbiting each other has put Einstein's general theory of relativity to its toughest test yet, and the crazy-haired physicist still comes out on top. About 7,000 ...

Artificial gravity has long been the stuff of science fiction. Picture the wheel-shaped ships from films like 2001: A Space Odyssey and The Martian, imaginary craft that generate their own gravity by ...
