Latest about gravity
Scientists think they detected the first known triple black hole system in the universe — and then watched it die
Chinese astronomers have spotted a hidden supermassive black hole in the background of a peculiar gravitational wave event from a black hole merger, hinting that all three singularities were locked in a never-before-seen triple system.
Scientists use Stephen Hawking theory to propose 'black hole morsels' — strange, compact objects that could reveal new physics
Violent black hole collisions may create black hole 'morsels' no larger than an asteroid — and these bizarre objects could pave the way to unlocking new physics, a study claims.
New dwarf planet discovered beyond the orbit of Neptune
Astronomers have announced the discovery of a new dwarf planet in our solar system, named 2017 OF201. Located far beyond Neptune, it orbits the sun every 25,000 years.
Physicists take step toward a 'theory of everything'
A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.
Can you burp in space?
Gravity plays a big role in burping, so could an astronaut burp in space?
Astronomers discover doomed planet shedding a Mount Everest's worth of material every orbit, leaving behind a comet-like tail
Astronomers discovered a planet that orbits its star so closely that its surface is being scorched into magma and vaporizing into space.
Black holes may obey the laws of physics after all, new theory suggests
"The singularity is the most mysterious and problematic part of a black hole. It's where our concepts of space and time literally no longer make sense."
Astronomers identify a celestial '3-body problem' lurking in the outer solar system
New research suggests that a binary pair of Kuiper Belt objects, known as the Altjira system, is actually made up of three separate bodies orbiting one another in a complex triad. This rare orbital configuration is often referred to as the "three-body problem."
