Astronomers observing star clusters in our galaxy have found evidence that controversially challenges Newton’s laws of gravity and could upend our understanding of the universe. The puzzling discovery could support a controversial idea that removes dark matter entirely. The researchers found this evidence by observing open star clusters or loosely bound groups of a few …
Quantum mechanics is complex in more ways than one. It is not only complicated in terms of mathematics, but also difficult to interpret in terms of implications. This is also a very controversial area. While he has some of the brightest minds in modern physics backing him up, he also has hardcore critics – the …

A new large-scale test of Einstein’s “general relativity theory” has raised questions about this cornerstone of modern physics. “General relativity” provides a powerful predictive framework for one of nature’s fundamental forces: gravity. The theory is remarkably successful in describing gravity when talking about stars and planets. But different physical scales present challenges for Einstein’s theory. …
