In the zero-gravity airplanes or vomit comet, why does stuff behave like there is no gravity when it is just falling? – Austin B., 11, Scranton, Pennsylvania I have flown many times in zero-gravity ...
Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...
A: I have flown many times in zero-gravity airplane flights. Each time I still enjoy the feeling of floating free, the ability to fly across the cabin from just one gentle push on the wall, just like ...

Last week, the Japanese meteorological satellite Himawari-8 snapped a pretty cool image of Australia from space. The image shows an enormous gravity wave sweeping through the atmosphere off the ...
Gravity is usually presented as the most familiar of nature’s forces, the quiet background pull that keeps feet on sidewalks and planets in orbit. A growing group of physicists is now treating that ...
General relativity has never been tested in places where the effects of gravity become truly extreme—for example, at the edge of a black hole. That will soon change Scientists have been trying ...
