As humanity continues its exploration of the universe, the low-gravity environment of space presents unusual challenges for scientists and engineers. Researchers at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering ...

File this one under "fun to think about, probably not changing your day job": a new study just dropped that suggests gravity itself might be the smoking gun that our entire universe is one big ...

Is our entire universe just a computer simulation? It sounds like the premise for a sci-fi movie, but over the years the idea has been debated by scientists in earnest. But now theoretical physicists ...

In a new Physical Review Letters study, researchers have successfully followed a gravitational wave's complete journey from the infinite past to the infinite future as it encounters a black hole.

The idea that we might be living in a simulated reality has worried us for centuries. Now physicists have found some ...

HOUSTON—Blue Origin’s 29th New Shepard suborbital launch on Feb. 4 successfully provided 30 technology payloads with brief exposure to simulated lunar gravity conditions, a first for the company’s ...

We have long taken it for granted that gravity is one of the basic forces of nature–one of the invisible threads that keeps the universe stitched together. But suppose that this is not true. Suppose ...

Cocoons of debris around dying stars could shake ripples in spacetime unlike any astronomers have ever seen. “This is a potential source of gravitational waves that has never been investigated before, ...

Wired Science is combing NASA's enormous image archive to bring you some of its most inspiring, awesome and weird photos. This 1965 shot of the Reduced Gravity Walking Simulator is one of our ...
