An illustration of an accelerating space rocket in Tom Siegfried’s essay “Getting a grip on gravity” (SN: 10/17/15, p. 16), explained that a clock at the top of the ship would tick faster than one at ...

In early July, astronomers spotted a mysterious object, later dubbed 3I/ATLAS after it was confirmed to be the third-ever interstellar visitor cruising through our solar system. Last week, the object, ...

A new study reports conclusive evidence for the breakdown of standard gravity in the low acceleration limit from a verifiable analysis of the orbital motions of long-period, widely separated, binary ...

Imagine you want to study what happens when an object accelerates. Oh, this is way before any of that internet stuff—also, no computers or electronics. In fact, let's say it's the year 1780. What do ...

Astronomers have attempted to explain the non-gravitational acceleration of comet 3I/ATLAS, our third confirmed interstellar visitor, in a way that removes the need for "non-natural hypotheses for ...
