For over a century, quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general relativity have stood as the cornerstones of modern physics, yet their unification remains one of science’s greatest challenges. Now, ...

In a bold step toward solving one of science’s most puzzling problems, researchers have proposed a new way to bring gravity into the same mathematical language as the other forces of nature. While the ...

The speed of light has been one of science’s most trusted markers of stability. For more than a century, the idea that light ...

Quantum theory fails to explain how the reality we experience emerges from the world of particles. A new take on quantum ...

For over 100 years, quantum physics has taught us that light is both a wave and a particle. Now, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have performed a daring experiment using ...

In 1887, one of the most important experiments in the history of physics took place. American scientists Michelson and Morley ...

Consciousness is fundamental; only thereafter do time, space and matter arise. This is the starting point for a new ...

Kellogg Stelle was a professor of physics at Imperial College London for decades until his death last month. In 1977, he developed a particle theory of gravity that’s renormalizable, but the theory’s ...
