How do skateboarders seemingly defy gravity? How do gymnasts flip in the air? They have skill — and, as a Times interactive explored, an understanding of the laws of motion, physics and energy. By ...

Mathematicians have solved a physics puzzle using backyard sprinklers. Experiments with silly sprinklers clarified how reverse sprinklers rotate. The key lies in how water momentum collides inside the ...

A team of neuroscientists at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona has found that the neurons in a mouse brain's vestibular nuclei control the signals that cause motion sickness. In their paper published ...

In salt water solutions, water molecules rapidly move around salt ions at a scale of more than a trillion times a second, according to both experiments and simulations. In salt water solutions, water ...

You experience everyday objects transformed through extreme macro shots and slow motion experiments that reveal details almost impossible to see with the naked eye. #MacroPhotography #SlowMotion ...
