The search for quantum gravity is the next big step in physics, as researchers seek to unify the physics of the very small ...

All the fundamental forces are thought to be carried by a particle, but a new mathematical model suggests gravity may be a striking exception. Building on a decades-old idea, researchers have revealed ...

In space, every action becomes more complicated—and CPR is no exception. With no gravity to keep you grounded, astronauts ...

Thanks to not-so-recent advances in technology, we can shoot just about anything into space, or at the very least into Earth's orbit. At first, we launched spy satellites during the Cold War, but once ...

To work toward getting around this issue, researchers used parabolic flights to simulate microgravity conditions, then 3D ...

Lipton and his colleagues have created a new class of deployable structures that could one day be used to create artificial ...

Researchers are 3D printing human muscle in zero gravity to create better disease models and improve astronaut health during space missions.

As humans set their sights on living beyond Earth, one surprising challenge is emerging: how do we grow healthy crops in the uncharted environment of space? Purdue University researchers, in ...

First Japan wants to make space sake and now China has been roasting New Orleans-style chicken wings and black pepper steaks ...
