Dark matter may have existed before the big bang, study
Testing the origin of dark matter by observing the signatures dark matter leaves on the distribution of matter in the universe.
When plant roots learned to follow gravity
Scentists have identified crucial components and processes which only developed in seed plants around 350 million years ago to enable fast and efficient gravity-driven root growth.
Milky Way’s central black hole puts theory of general relativity to the test
Almost a century later, Albert Einstein published his iconic theory of General relativity. Now, scientists at the University of California, Los Angeles have tested...
Physicists just made the most precise measurement ever of Gravity’s strength
The Newtonian gravitational constant, G, is one of the most fundamental constants of nature, but we still do not have an accurate value for...
Old star clusters could have been the birthplace of supermassive stars
The Milky Way galaxy has more than 150 old globular clusters, each containing a huge number of stars densely packed together and held by...
Scientists Finally Calculated The Speed of Gravity
Recently, scientists made groundbreaking detections that allowed them that gravity does not act instantaneously as Newton thought, instead it propagates at the speed of light.

Finding the Missing Nature’s Fifth Force
There are four fundamental forces that drive the universe. They are as gravity, electromagnetic, and the strong and weak nuclear forces. But, now scientists are...
