Gravity Experiments on the Kitchen Table: Why a Tiny, Tiny Measurement May Be a Big Leap Forward for Physics

Just over a week ago, European physicists announced they had measured the strength of gravity on the smallest scale ever. In a clever tabletop experiment, researchers at Leiden University in the Netherlands, the University of Southampton in the UK, and the Institute for Photonics and Nanotechnologies in Italy measured a force of around 30 attonewtons […]
