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 ...

"A three-body problem is extremely complicated. Now we're dealing with four: the sun, Earth, the moon and Mars. The heavy ...

This temporal lag is a direct consequence of Albert Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity. The rule is simple: the weaker ...

Time may seem like a constant force, but according to a new study published on December 1 in The Astronomical Journal, the ...

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is ...

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 ...

"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 ...

In 2023, scientists detected the gravitational waves from a black hole collision that seemed impossible. New research finally explains how this "forbidden" black hole came to be, and what it can teach ...
