Veritasium and Adam Savage team up to show off the physics of falling objects. First question: will a penny thrown from the Empire State Building kill you?

In an experiment that puts the good old-fashioned egg drop to shame, European physicists dropped a small blob of ultracold atoms down a 146-meter-tall shaft. The result: no yolk on their face. In the ...

Gravity doesn’t discriminate. An experiment in orbit has confirmed, with precision a hundred times greater than previous efforts, that everything falls the same way under the influence of gravity. The ...

Like most real-world problems, physics can get very complicated. When a physicist considers the fate of this falling cockroach, their first step is to change the problem into something simpler. It's ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I write about physics, science, academia, and pop culture. This helps, sort of, but as more numbers get thrown around, it can get ...

It’s been demonstrated since the 1500s that, when falling toward a certain body, objects fall at the same rate. Everyone from Galileo in Pisa to David Scott on the moon demonstrated that. But what if ...

Everyone knows I love both Star Wars and physics. I've been wanting to do a physics post for Solo: A Star Star Wars Story—but I've waiting. I like to wait until the movie is available for home viewing ...
