Researchers have made significant progress in understanding the enigmatic forces of the universe by developing a method to measure gravity at a microscopic level.
Physicists at the University of Southampton, in collaboration with European scientists, have achieved a breakthrough by detecting a weak gravitational pull on a tiny particle using an innovative technique.
This advancement is believed to be a crucial step towards uncovering the elusive quantum gravity theory.
Their groundbreaking experiment, featured in Science Advances, involved the use of levitating magnets to detect gravity on minuscule particles that exist on the border of the quantum realm.
Lead author Tim Fuchs, from the University of Southampton, expressed optimism that these findings could contribute to solving the puzzle of reality.
