A Jupiter-sized world just 7.5 light-years away is cloudy, chemically complex, and, it turns out, more like home than anyone expected.

Our understanding of the internal structure of protons is largely based on classical physics, but data compiled from accelerator experiments has uncovered quantum behaviour that has never been seen before

The Universe is like water flowing downhill, and that's not a New-Age-style spiritual mantra.

The theoretical physicist and best-selling author finds inspiration in politics and philosophy for rethinking space and time.
