Here is the narration for today's MERLIN SCIENCE video. The finding, in one clean sentence: A tabletop experiment using matter-wave interferometry, specifically the T-cubed proposal, defines a testable regime where quantum gravity effects should manifest as a measurable phase shift, without introducing any new fundamental constant or equation. The context: We are stuck. Quantum mechanics and general relativity are both spectacularly confirmed, yet they refuse to merge into a single framework. Every attempt to probe the quantum nature of gravity has required astronomical energies or cosmic-scale detectors. The T-cubed experiment offers a different route — a laboratory-scale path that could finally observe the collapse of a quantum superposition under its own gravitational field. The mechanism, at a level you can evaluate: The key is the cubic scaling of the interferometric phase with free-evolution time, T. The phase grows as mass times acceleration times T cubed.
