Although Earth is approximately spherical, its gravity field doesn't adhere to the same geometry. In visualizations, it more closely resembles a potato, with bumps and divots. One of the strongest of ...

While a "gravity hole" in Antarctica has been on scientists’ radar for some time, its history has never been fully understood. New research is beginning to change that, and in doing so, suggest ...

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 new radio survey reveals that the Milky Way’s magnetic field is intricate, widespread, and deeply connected to how the galaxy is organized.

We like to say that we love our fear because our fear keeps us alive, our fear keeps us vigilant.” Rudolph is the founder of ...

A record-breaking gravitational wave signal let scientists "listen" to a distant black hole merger and put Einstein's gravity to its toughest test yet.

A novel method to manipulate the inner structure of cells connects several scientific fields and could represent a ...

Forte and colleagues now believe Antarctica’s gravity hole was weaker before eventually intensifying around 30 to 50 million years ago. This corresponds to large-scale changes in the continent’s ...

New research on heart rate variability suggests that composure isn’t a personality trait. It’s a physiological skill the nervous system can train—one that may determine who thrives when the stakes are ...

We treat gravity as a firm law, but the ground beneath Antarctica tells a ...
