Scientists could soon test Einstein's theory of general relativity by measuring the distortion of time. General relativity states that gravity is the result of mass warping the fabric of space and ...

Their work introduces a new concept called q-desics, short for quantum-corrected paths through space–time. These paths ...

A South Korean physicist has proposed a theoretical framework that could support the unification of quantum mechanics and the ...

“Using newer mathematical tools, my colleague and I have demonstrated a new theory that may accurately describe the universe.

Astronomers have witnessed a star's dramatic demise near a spinning black hole, offering unprecedented insights into Einstein ...

In 1998, a gentleman by the name of John Titor arrived from the future, or so he said. In his timeline, as he claimed, ...

Two blind spots torture physicists: the birth of the universe and the center of a black hole. The former may feel like a moment in time and the latter a point in space, but in both cases the normally ...

"By understanding quantum gravity, we could solve some of the mysteries of our universe — like how it began, what happens inside black holes, or uniting all forces into one big theory." When you ...

In the gloomy days of January, time seems to drag. According to the Einstein theory of relativity, it actually does—in a minute amount that means little to anyone except a scientist. During its annual ...

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 ...
