For centuries, we’ve believed gravity holds the universe together. But what if that’s the biggest misunderstanding in science ...
For centuries, gravity has been the cornerstone of physics—but what if it’s not the universe’s true force? The Electric Universe theory claims that invisible cosmic currents shape stars, planets, and ...
Researchers have unveiled a new model for the universe’s birth that replaces cosmic inflation with gravitational waves as the ...
Observations of the early universe made by NASA's flagship James Webb Space Telescope are challenging the traditional theory of gravity and how the first galaxies formed. This is the conclusion of a ...
If we were living in a computer simulation, would we be able to tell we were living in a computer simulation? It's a question that's difficult to answer, but physicist Melvin Vopson of the University ...
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 ...
Since conventional explanations have failed to pony up dark matter, one physicist is looking towards the unconventional. In a series of two papers, physicist Stefano Profumo of the University of ...
Our universe would look so different, Kyle. You might not recognize it even if you could be here to see it. Unfortunately, there probably wouldn’t be a whole lot to see. I learned about this from ...
For decades, physicists have faced one of science’s greatest puzzles: merging quantum mechanics, which describes tiny particles, with general relativity, which explains the universe’s vast structures.
What happens if you do a big jump? Your body goes up into the air. But then it comes back down again. The reason you don’t just keep going up, up, up is because the force of gravity pushes your body ...
Melvin M. Vopson is affiliated with the University of Portsmouth and the Information Physics Institute. We have long taken it for granted that gravity is one of the basic forces of nature – one of the ...
