A persistent "gravity hole" beneath Antarctica gives scientists a window into Earth's deep interior, showing how processes ...

A conspiracy theory that spread on social media claims that gravity will disappear for seven seconds this August, and that NASA is aware that this will happen. A physics professor explains why this is ...

A viral social media claim suggests Earth will lose gravity for seven seconds on August 12, 2026. This prediction, fueled by ...

Gravitational anomalies detected by NASA and the German Aerospace Center’s GRACE satellites confused scientists for years. Here’s what happened.

Gravity feels reliable—stable and consistent enough to count on. But reality is far stranger than our intuition. In truth, the strength of gravity varies over Earth's surface. And it is weakest ...

A region beneath Antarctica where Earth’s gravitational pull is measurably weaker than anywhere else on the planet has persisted for roughly 70 million years, according to new research that traces the ...

The geoid (the surface of equal gravitational potential of a hypothetical ocean at rest) serves as the classical reference ...

The simulations showed that the gravity hole was initially much less pronounced. Between roughly 50 million and 30 million years ago, however, it intensified significantly. This period coincides with ...

A shifting of Earth’s poles, referred to as ‘True Polar Wander,” combined with the sinking of tectonic plates during the Cenozoic Era, altered the planet’s interior, with rising hot mantle material ...

On a planet with 2.5 times Earth’s gravity, everything would feel heavier — including evolution itself. Intelligent life ...

Gravitational waves may leave a permanent timing gap in light, revealing how gravity preserves information through a memory ...

According to a new study, researchers have identified a massive gravity hole-technically known as a Geoid Low-beneath the Antarctic ice surrounding the Southern Ocean. This discovery is providing ...
