This is an Inside Science story. (Inside Science) -- The sound of a sonic boom may produce about the same magnitude of gravitational pull as a 10-milligram weight, a new study finds.
New discoveries of objects in the Kuiper Belt have also presented challenges for the Planet Nine theory. The latest is known as 2023 KQ14, an object discovered by the Subaru telescope in Hawaii.
A team of scientists has proposed a groundbreaking new theory on the Universe's origins, offering a fresh, radical take on ...
Earth’s gravitational pull on the moon has revealed that our satellite’s interior is warmer on its near side, the one facing our planet, suggesting its insides are uneven. In the GRAIL mission ...
But Earth's gravitational pull will draw 2024 PT5 towards it and, much like our moon, it will orbit our planet — but only for 56.6 days.
The weak gravitational pull on a particle just half the mass of a grain of sand has been measured for the first time. This most precise measurement of its kind is a breakthrough towards the ...
Dr. Melvin Vopson, an associate professor in physics at the University of Portsmouth in the UK, believes that gravity is a sign that we are living in a virtual simulation and the universe is the ...
