Plot thickens in the hunt for a ninth planet
A pair of theoretical physicists are reporting that the same observations inspiring the hunt for a ninth planet might instead be evidence within the solar system of a modified law of gravity originally developed to understand the rotation of galaxies.....»»
Gravitational distortion of time helps tell modified gravity apart from a dark force
With his theory of General Relativity in 1915, Albert Einstein revolutionized how we think about our universe. Rather than the cosmos simply providing the room for the planets and stars to orbit each other, space and time themselves were now dynamica.....»»

Growing in molasses: Cosmic large-scale structure caught growing slower than expected
The large-scale structure of the universe—the gigantic, hierarchical cosmic web of structures bound by gravity—is mostly made up of dark matter. The growth of the large-scale structure, from individual galaxies to galaxy clusters, cosmic voids an.....»»
Antimatter: We cracked how gravity affects it. What it means for our understanding of the universe
A substance called antimatter is at the heart of one of the greatest mysteries of the universe. We know that every particle has an antimatter companion that is virtually identical to itself, but with the opposite charge. When a particle and its antip.....»»
Mysterious antimatter observed falling down for first time
For the first time, scientists have observed antimatter particles—the mysterious twins of the visible matter all around us—falling downwards due to the effect of gravity, Europe's physics lab CERN announced on Wednesday......»»
Einstein right again: Antimatter falls “down” due to gravity like ordinary matter
CERN's ALPHA experiment confirms matter and antimatter react to gravity in a similar way. Enlarge / An artist's conceptual rendering of antihydrogen atoms falling out the bottom of the magnetic trap of the ALPHA-g apparatus. (cre.....»»
The 2024 BMW i7 M70—electric luxury turned up to 11
Adding more power often adds little to the EV experience, but we like this one. Enlarge / The i7 M70 features new mirrors and side skirts to go with new suspension and brakes and a more powerful rear motor. (credit: Jonathan Gitl.....»»
Turning up gravity for space fungi study
Fungi in space have been a plot point in Star Trek: Discovery, but they are also a very real problem for astronauts and space stations. United Nations co-sponsored testing by a team from Macau in China subjected fungi to hypergravity with ESA's fast-.....»»

Researchers: If neutron stars have mountains, they should generate gravitational waves
A neutron star is 2 solar masses compressed into a ball only 12 kilometers wide. Its surface gravity is so immense it compresses atoms and molecules into raw nuclei and squeezes electrons into protons transforming them into neutrons. Given such immen.....»»
Rivian"s EV registrations rise as startups Lucid, VinFast stall
Rivian added 2,783 new registrations in July for its R1 vehicles. Lucid had 356 for its Air sedan and VinFast 19 for its VF 8 crossover. Fisker had 30 for the new Ocean, as Tesla undercut the newcomers......»»
