The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. When it comes to understanding the fabric of the universe, most of what scientists think exists is consigned to a dark, murky domain.
Quantum gravity tries to combine Einstein’s general theory of relativity with quantum mechanics. Quantum corrections to classical gravity are visualized as loop diagrams, as the one shown here in ...

Microgravity Is The Final Frontier For Medicine. Here's Why.
Research efforts going back decades, conducted on parabolic flights and the International Space Station, have shown that a ...
The accepted theory that the universe began evolving some 13.7 billion years ago from an infinitely dense and hot substance that has been expanding since the first extremely small fraction of a second ...
Physics tells us that a hammer and a feather, dropped in a vacuum, will fall at the same rate – as famously demonstrated by an Apollo 15 astronaut on the Moon. Now, CERN scientists are preparing to ...
Today I heard* Monday's edition of BBC Radio 4's programme called "In Our Time". This one was about the Graviton. You may recall me talking about this series before, back when I'd heard the one about ...
