Renewable Lubricants has introduced a new line of ultimately biodegradable hydraulic fluids designed for equipment operating in environmentally sensitive areas, including trails, shorelines, marinas ...

The two stars in the nearby system ZTF J2130 are spiraling toward a catastrophic supernova. In the meantime, scientists are using the pair's slow orbital decay to put Einstein's theory of gravity to ...

Massive stones, no machines, and echoes of a lost science—did ancient builders use sound to lift the impossible? From Giza to Nan Madol, the clues point to acoustic levitation as more than just myth.

You may have heard people say that aboard the International Space Station (ISS) there's "zero gravity," but in fact, gravity is still very much present. The station orbits Earth at an altitude of ...

Hurricane Helene left a trail of devastation and destruction last year, dumping 40 trillion gallons of water on the Southeast. It leveled houses, sent trees crashing and left millions without power.

Unifying gravity and quantum theory remains a significant goal in modern physics. Despite the success in unifying all other fundamental interactions (electromagnetism, strong force and weak force) ...

In this experiment, we explore the strange behavior of granular materials, how tiny grains can appear to defy gravity, flow like fluids, and even climb walls under vibration. Physics gets surprisingly ...

Researchers in Canada have proposed using gravity-based energy storage in high-rise buildings, in combination with photovoltaic facades, small wind turbines, and lithium-ion batteries. Their modeling ...

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. An image of a black hole surrounded by matter. Does the secret of quantum gravity lie around ...

In a twist on conventional wisdom, researchers have discovered that in ocean-like fluids with changing density, tiny porous particles can sink faster than larger ones, thanks to how they absorb salt.

A new probe in development known as GIRO represents a low-cost step toward unlocking the secrets of the outer planets, all through the invisible pull of gravity. When you purchase through links on our ...
