For those who watch gravitational waves roll in from the universe, GW250114 is a big one. It's the clearest gravitational ...
Wormholes are often imagined as tunnels through space or time—shortcuts across the universe. But this image rests on a misunderstanding of work by physicists Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen.
Albert Einstein was a thinker ahead of his time. Born March 14, 1879, Einstein entered a world where the dwarf planet Pluto had yet to be discovered, and the idea of spaceflight was a distant dream.
In an effort to bring together the domains of gravity and quantum theory, Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen proposed a ...
The German physicist revolutionized modern science and became a critical voice on the ethical responsibility of scientific ...
Albert Einstein's humorous quote offers a profound lesson for children: never stop questioning or learning. The universe's ...
WUWM astronomy contributor Jean Creighton discusses cosmology ahead of "Birth of the Universe" at UWM's Manfred Olson ...
The cosmos is a unique laboratory for testing the laws of physics, in particular those of Euler and Einstein. Euler described the movements of celestial objects, while Einstein described the way in ...
Why is the expansion of our Universe accelerating? Twenty-five years after its discovery, this phenomenon remains one of the greatest scientific mysteries. Solving it involves testing the fundamental ...
A new study combining two of Albert Einstein's famous predictions suggests that ripples in space-time can combine into 'gravitational lasers', firing out of black holes in random directions across the ...
In 1905, Albert Einstein revolutionized physics by demonstrating that time is not absolute but relative to the observer's ...
Time dilation: It’s a staple of science fiction, and whether you’re familiar with the term or not, you’ve probably encountered it in print or film. Fly fast enough to the speed of light, and your ...
