Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still ...
Time travel is still very much science fiction, at least to us laymens.. But in the world of physics that’s not the case.
Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space ...
Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...
If you’re concerned about getting every microsecond out of life, then you might not want to migrate to Mars. Using extremely ...
Astronomers have seen spacetime itself wobble near a spinning black hole for the first time. The discovery, revealed during a star’s destruction, confirms a major prediction of Einstein’s theory of ...
A UK-based research project, TomoGrav, will produce the first 3D movies of black holes, mapping plasma flows and gravity in real time using advanced AI and global telescope networks.
Is time really constant, or does it change depending on speed, gravity, and where you are in the universe? This video breaks down the fascinating idea of time relativity in a clear, easy-to-understand ...

A little while ago, we talked about the concept of timezones and the Moon. It’s a complicated issue, because on Earth, time is all about the Sun and our local relationship with it. The Moon and the ...
Thanks to Albert Einstein, the US Government wants to establish an official time zone for the Moon. It has less to do with jet lag and more to do with how gravity affects time and can throw a lot of ...
