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 ...

COLUMBIA, Mo. – Scientists have attempted to disprove Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity for the better part of a century. After testing and confirming Einstein’s prediction in 2002 that ...

Albert Einstein, everyone’s favorite wild-haired genius with a mischievous grin, is more than just a pop culture icon whose legend lives on today. He’s arguably the most influential scientist of the ...

A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.

Albert Einstein is famous for his contributions to physics, even predicting this strange and fascinating gravitational effect ...

In a bold step toward solving one of science’s most puzzling problems, researchers have proposed a new way to bring gravity into the same mathematical language as the other forces of nature. While the ...

A bizarre "cosmic glitch" in the theory of how the gravity of the universe works may have been mended. The strange glitch in Einstein's description of gravity in his theory of general relativity may ...

Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, which originated outside our solar system, has reportedly confirmed one of Albert Einstein's ...

To understand gravity, Einstein had to rethink space and time as a single connected fabric. He showed that mass bends this fabric, guiding how everything moves. NOVA is available to stream on pbs.org ...
