A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.

The bold attempt to solve the toughest mystery at the heart of physics Finding out whether gravity – and therefore space-time itself – is quantum in nature has long been thought impossible.
