Is time something that flows — or just an illusion? Exploring space-time as either a fixed “block universe” or a dynamic fabric reveals deeper mysteries about existence, change, and the very nature of ...

According to Newtonian physics, the gravitational attraction between two masses is proportional to the inverse of the square of the distance between them – the inverse square law. However, as Most ...

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

Textbooks give strange, imprecise explanations of where things happen in quantum mechanics. Consistency with gravity needs a fresh approach.

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 ...

Recent discoveries in the realm of physics have pointed to the possibility of time anomalies that challenge our current ...

Since that day, LIGO — composed of two highly sensitive laser interferometers located in Hanford, Washington and Livingston, ...

Ten years ago, scientists heard the universe rumble for the first time. That first discovery of gravitational waves proved a ...

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

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. At the beginning of time and the center of every black hole lies a point of infinite density called a singularity. To explore these ...

Cells exposed to a month of extraterrestrial conditions accumulated molecular changes associated with aging and mutations ...
