Science News reports on a first claimed observation of quantum gravity, on ultracold neutrons. If this holds up, it's a wonderful advance. The experimental setup seems beautifully simple and clever, too. Their ability to measure 1.4 pico eV boggles the mind. However creative we computing people think we are, a well-designed natural science experiment is in a different league. 3:49:07 PM
