Do We Need a New Theory of Gravity?
Podcast: The Joy of WhyPublished On: Thu Aug 29 2024
Description: Observations of the cosmos suggest that unseen sources of gravity — dark matter — tug at the stars in galaxies, while another mysterious force — dark energy — drives the universe to expand at an ever-increasing rate.

In this episode, theoretical physicist Claudia de Rham explains her work on an alternative explanation called “massive gravity” to host Janna Levin.
