A supermassive black hole was caught twisting spacetime, offering the clearest real-world evidence yet for Einstein’s ...
For more than a century, physics has treated space and time as the smooth stage on which the universe unfolds, a flexible ...
Oftentimes, we think of space as an endless, mostly empty vacuum, a silent backdrop where planets, stars, and galaxies play out their dance. We also think of time as something separate, a steady ...
Astronomers have finally watched a black hole do something Albert Einstein only described on paper, twisting the fabric of ...
110 years ago today, Albert Einstein published his General Theory of Relativity, which redefined the relationship between matter and gravity. Suddenly, our mysterious universe made a little more sense ...
Learn how researchers used Einstein’s theory of general relativity to create the most accurate simulations to date.
BOULDER- Black holes, time travel and E= mc^2. They are all related to Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity. How many of us, though, can actually explain any of it? This year, Einstein's theory ...
This temporal lag is a direct consequence of Albert Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity. The rule is simple: the weaker the gravity, the faster time passes. Mars’s surface gravity is a weakling, ...

By Anil K Rajvanshi A new theory in Physics, as enunciated by Gunther Kletetschka, tries to unite quantum physics and gravity ...
As 24-cent copies of Albert Einstein’s abstruse “Coherent Field Theory” reached the U. S. last week, the man himself, his wife and a daughter plodded about Wannsee, simply hunting rooms at that lake ...
(THE CONVERSATION) As a child growing up in the early 1990s, I remember learning in school about the greenhouse effect. Carbon dioxide released by burning fossil fuels traps heat near the Earth’s ...
