In 1980, Stephen Hawking gave his first lecture as Lucasian Professor at the University of Cambridge. The lecture was called ...

The breakthrough could suggest a way to study 'quantum gravity,' the missing link between quantum physics and Einstein's general relativity in the lab. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...

Of the four fundamental forces of physics, gravity is the one we’re most familiar with in everyday life, but it’s also the only one that can’t currently be explained by quantum physics. Now scientists ...

It was already a mind-bending shift, last century, to go from Isaac Newton’s absolute space and universal time to Albert Einstein’s four-dimensional space-time, which is dynamic, flexible, sensitive ...

Physics is the study of the underlying laws and mechanisms explaining how the universe works. Most of what we do in daily life is based on a principle or law of physics—dealing with forces, motion, ...
