A variation on the theory of quantum gravity — the unification of quantum mechanics and Einstein's general relativity — could help solve one of the biggest puzzles in cosmology, new research suggests.

A new theory suggests that the unification between quantum physics and general relativity has eluded scientists for 100 years because huge "fluctuations" in space and time mean that gravity won't play ...

GameSpot may get a commission from retail offers. Change is on the horizon for Destiny 2, as a mid-season patch will tweak several weapon archetypes and fine-tune some of the game's Exotics. On the ...

The accelerating expansion of the universe could be explained by modifying general relativity so that gravity has mass – or so thinks a small group of physicists. Matthew Francis reports What lies ...

Bottom line: For decades, physicists have been trying to solve one of the greatest mysteries in science: how gravity operates at the smallest scales governed by quantum mechanics. While we have ...

Legend has it that Isaac Newton had the moment of inspiration that would lead to his theory of gravity when, on a warm ...

Physicists have long assumed that the universe is pretty much the same in any direction, and now they've found a new way to test that hypothesis: by examining the shadow of a black hole. If that ...
