In 1919, a total solar eclipse offered the only chance to test Albert Einstein's radical new theory of gravity, General ...

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 ...

Scientists detect a 20-day wobble from a star-shredding black hole, confirming spacetime twisting predicted by Einstein.

The speed of light has been one of science’s most trusted markers of stability. For more than a century, the idea that light moves through space at a constant speed has supported some of physics’ most ...

Einstein’s equations look simple on paper but when physicists follow them to their logical end, the universe becomes far stranger than anyone expected. Black holes, warped space, time dilation, and ...

Theoretical physicist and Nobel Prize winner, Kip Thorne, came to the BYU campus to lecture about his discoveries and ...

The ball rolls across the floor because it was kicked, just as Earth orbits the sun because it is tugged by gravity. The connection between cause and effect is fundamental to how we understand the ...

Researchers at TU Wien have integrated quantum physics with general relativity, revealing significant departures from ...

HBO Max's sizzle reel offers our first real look at the Big Bang Theory spinoff, hinting at a stranger, more ambitious series ...

The seventh day of the 18th annual Space Telescope Advent Calendar features a distant galaxy seen through a patch of space ...
