    DescriptionIn an article published in AIP Advances and included in the journal's "Editor's Picks," a physicist from the University of Portsmouth, Dr. Melvin Vopson, presents findings which indicate that gravity or gravitational force is the result of a computational process within the universe.

    He suggests that gravity might actually be caused by how information about matter is organized in the universe. Using the second law of information dynamics, he indicates that matter and objects in space may be being pulled together because the universe is trying to keep information tidy and compressed.
