From Newton’s falling apple to Einstein’s curved spacetime, our understanding of gravity has come a long way, yet this familiar force remains one of the biggest puzzles in physics.

GRAVITY is the universal force that pulls all objects towards each other, and keeps us standing on the ground. Today, we take gravity for granted - but who first discovered this invisible force?

Most people know the story of Isaac Newton and the falling apple and how it led him to identify the force of gravity. Some of us will also be aware that he formulated the laws of motion. But not many ...

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — It's a tale as old as time itself: Isaac Newton sat under a tree, got hit in the head with an apple and came up with the theories of gravity and motion. So, the story itself may ...
