Waterloo scientists have developed a new way to understand how the universe began, and it could change what we know about the Big Bang and the earliest moments of cosmic history. Their work suggests ...

Scientists have proposed a bold new explanation for how the universe began, suggesting the Big Bang’s rapid expansion may have emerged naturally from the laws of quantum gravity. Credit: Shutterstock ...

Though spacecraft with artificial gravity are still a distant dream, we had proof of concept way back in September 1966.

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) ...

A Gravity Theory That Could Rewrite the Universe’s First Moments The first fraction of a second after the Big Bang has always ...

There is a glaring gap in our knowledge of the physical world: none of our well-established theories describe gravity’s quantum nature. Yet physicists expect that this quantum nature is essential for ...

You can say the universe has a split personality. Or better said, our physical models of the universe are the ones fractured.
