This scene would have been pretty interesting if physics had its way with Aladdin and Jasmine.

It might not be rocket science, but it is physics!

It looks like the faster-than-light neutrinos have passed a new test, which could derail over 100 years of evidence-supported physics research.

This kid's parents are pretty awesome. With over a thousand popsicle sticks and some help from the laws of physics, they created an incredible exploding wave on their kitchen floor.

A team of physicists in Europe has recorded data that shows neutrinos traveling faster than the speed of light. Naturally, this data has sparked heated debate, disbelief and outrage in the scientific community.

Gabe Newell, co-founder of Valve, wants to make it so your kids can learn physics in school by playing Portal 2.

It’s a curious thing, physics. It’s everywhere around us, yet without an education of its every function and reaction, most of us don’t see it, or at least acknowledge it. We know it’s there, but we’re immune to its actual nature. For instance, something as simple as peeling a piece of Scotch tape off of the roll. Most people would ...

The Nobel Prize of Physics isn’t awarded to just any Tom, Dick or Albert, and the two scientists who took the stage to accept the honor this year for the creation of Graphene are no exception. Graphene has been touted as a super-substance, as strong as steel, as conductive as copper and only as thick as a single atom. But ...

Gearfuse has some of the smartest readers on the face of the planet. Andrew’s Fake Facts Weekly recently came out with a study that placed Gearfuse at the top of the list for the number of physicists per 1000 readers. You have to admit, that’s a pretty impressive piece of made-up trivia. The infographic after the jump is chock full ...

Did you know that CERN had its very own choir? It’s true. With foxy bespectacled sopranos and handsome pocket protector donning tenors, this nerdy troupe of physicists / choir singers performs their homegrown “The Particle Physics Song” which celebrates English physicist Peter Higgs and CERN’s quest to discover the existence of the Higgs boson. Fun fact: the Higgs boson is ...
