A rewrite of quantum mechanics that includes the force of gravity could finally achieve one of physicists’ biggest goals and…

Has the secret to understanding gravity been hiding in plain sight for nearly 50 years?

With the right hack, physicists got a peek into unlikely phenomena.

"The first step isn't technical, but mental: convincing yourself that a possible path actually exists."

A massive test of gravity across the cosmos found that it behaves almost exactly as Newton and Einstein predicted, even across…

The question of how gravity interacts with the quantum world has long perplexed physicists, but a non-quantum theory of…
