Ever since Einstein: nothing is faster than light. In 2011, an experiment at CERN seemed to prove the opposite - until the ...
Can darkness really travel faster than light? A surprising new physics experiment suggests it can—at least in a very unusual ...
Some of the hardest questions in cosmology begin where the usual math gives up. Push Einstein’s theory far enough back toward ...
Albert Einstein, one of the most celebrated modern scientists, proposed the revolutionary theory of special relativity more than a century ago. This theory forms the basis of most of what we ...
110 years ago today, Albert Einstein published his General Theory of Relativity, which redefined the relationship between matter and gravity. Suddenly, our mysterious universe made a little more sense ...
A dark point inside a beam of light should not be much of a traveler. Yet in a new experiment, some of those points appeared ...
A 54-page document handwritten in 1913-1914 by Albert Einstein and Swiss engineer Michele Besso, sold in Paris earlier today for €11.6 million (US$13.0 million). It’s not the most valuable document ...
Like Max Planck, Albert Einstein first studied mathematics because he was told that everything interesting in physics had already been discovered. But in 1905, Einstein, a young cleark at the Swiss ...
