Our understanding of the universe may be completely wrong.

For over a century, Einstein's general theory of relativity has been key to understanding gravity. But new research suggests this theory "glitches" in the farthest reaches of space. That doesn't mean ...

Solar eclipses occasion lots of excitement and pique the public's interest in astronomical phenomena. Eclipses can also expand our understanding of the universe in profound ways. In fact, astronomical ...

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 ...

BOULDER- Black holes, time travel and E= mc^2. They are all related to Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity. How many of us, though, can actually explain any of it? This year, Einstein's theory ...

As the Moon’s shadow creeps across the Sun on April 8, physicist Aroh Barjatya will launch a trio of 60-foot-tall rockets into the highest layer of Earth’s atmosphere. The short, sudden darkness of a ...

(KXAN) — Solar eclipses are an amazing sight that has inspired some amazing science. The upcoming April 8 eclipse will provide numerous opportunities for professional and amateur scientists, but those ...

Fast-moving objects don’t always look the way you’d expect. When something travels near the speed of light, strange things happen—not just to time and space, but also to how the object appears. For ...

A new solution to Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity suggests hypothetical gravitational stars that look like black holes could be nested within one another. When you purchase through ...

China has quietly solved a problem that only becomes obvious once you try to live and work off-world: clocks on the moon do ...
