From Newton’s falling apple to Einstein’s curved spacetime, our understanding of gravity has come a long way, yet this ...

After watching that, I joked with a friend that the gravity we feel every day is actually a result of space-time being ...

Today, let's talk about something mysterious and really cool — the ideas that old man Einstein came up with over a hundred years ago are now actually becoming visible! Isn't that strange?

Spacetime ripples from a black hole collision across the cosmos have confirmed weird aspects of black hole physics ...

A decade ago, scientists first detected ripples in the fabric of space-time, called gravitational waves, from the collision ...

The fabric of space and time is not exempt from the effects of gravity. Plop in a mass and space-time curves around it, not dissimilar to what happens when you put a bowling ball on a trampoline. This ...

When LIGO detected gravitational waves unleashed from two colliding black holes for the first time in science history, it set off a whole new era in astronomy.

The geometry of spacetime forms the very foundation of modern gravitational theory, where the elegant interplay between curvature and matter is described by Einstein’s field equations. In this ...

Ten years ago, astronomers made history when they first detected ripples in spacetime, called gravitational waves, from the collision of two black holes. That moment in 2015, known as GW150914, ...

Astronomers measured a newborn black hole’s recoil speed and direction for the first time, thanks to gravitational waves from ...

The rapid expansion of the universe has been the most perplexing enigma in physics. To unravel this cosmic puzzle, scientists turn to the fundamental laws of physics, including Albert Einstein's ...

New views of two colliding black holes confirm predictions made by Stephen Hawking using Albert Einstein’s theory.
