Scientists have made a significant advancement that backs up a theory put forth by famed physicist, Stephen Hawking, more than 50 years ago. Experts have used a gravitational wave detector to "hear" ...

Our universe could be dying much faster than scientists thought, but it's still going to be around for a mind-bogglingly long time, a new study finds. So, the universe will theoretically come to an ...

Scientists have found that the universe's decay rate is much faster than previously thought. A team of three scientists from Radboud University, Netherlands, calculated how long it would take for ...

On Sept. 14, 2015, physicists attained the long-sought goal of detecting gravitational waves, the shockwaves spewed out by such cataclysmic events as the violent merger of two black holes. Now, in the ...

The universe is decaying much faster than thought. This is shown by calculations of three Dutch scientists on the so-called Hawking radiation. They calculate that the last stellar remnants take about ...

After receiving a glowing introduction, a standing ovation and a commemorative medal, the one thing super-cosmologist Stephen Hawking really wanted last night was a copy of a video featuring clips of ...

Gravitational-wave astronomy has exploded since 2015, capturing hundreds of black hole and neutron star collisions. With ever-clearer signals, researchers are testing Einstein’s relativity and Hawking ...
