Researchers are using black hole “shadow” images to test whether Einstein’s relativity remains unshakable. With ...

For the first time, scientists have detected two black hole mergers with spins so unusual they may reveal a new generation of ...

Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity—which explains gravity as the product of the distortion of space and time—may not be universally applicable. This is the conclusion of physicists from ...

Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, which originated outside our solar system, has reportedly confirmed one of Albert Einstein's ...

Black holes are considered cosmic gluttons, from which not even light can escape. That is also why the images of black holes ...

An international team led by Japanese researchers has made a 3D map of 3000 galaxies 13 billion light years from Earth, and found that Einstein’s general theory of relativity is still valid. Since it ...

Interstellar object 3I/ATLAS has seemingly confirmed Einstein's general relativity by exhibiting gravitational lensing as it neared the Sun. However, the observed light bending exceeded predictions by ...

Albert Einstein is famous for his contributions to physics, even predicting this strange and fascinating gravitational effect ...

Fragments of energy may be the fundamental building blocks of the universe. The theory combines the ideas of particles and waves into a concentration of energy that flows throughout space and time.

COLUMBIA, Mo. – Scientists have attempted to disprove Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity for the better part of a century. After testing and confirming Einstein’s prediction in 2002 that ...

A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.
