MAIN Science Physics

How does the universe behave?

Simply put, physics is the study of matter and its motion through time and space.

There are rules to how it all works, which helps explain everything from black holes in outer space to the universal laws of gravity that play out in our everyday lives.

On the research front, meanwhile, scientists are busily searching for singularity, or a unified theory of everything which unifies all the fundamental forces in nature under a single force.

It's an exciting time to be involved in physics - as we check out the best sites for discovering more about the topic for budding young scientists and engineers as well educators, parents, college students, kids and teens ...
