This week, researchers pinned down the age of a complete Homo-genus skull found in Greece in 1960 to at least 286,000 years ...

Scientists are rethinking the universe’s deepest mysteries using numerical relativity, complex computer simulations of ...

Dive into the interesting story of how Albert Einstein developed the Theory of Relativity, one of the most revolutionary scientific breakthroughs in history. This video explores Einstein’s journey ...

Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity—which explains gravity as the product of the distortion of space and time—may not be universally applicable. This is the conclusion of physicists ...

To obtain a basic understanding of the key concepts of special and general relativity, especially spacetime and its curvature, and to successfully apply basic concepts and mathematical techniques of ...

For decades, physicists have struggled to reconcile the bizarre behaviour of tiny particles at the quantum level with the elegant, predictable curves of space and time described by general relativity.

A new solution to Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity suggests hypothetical gravitational stars that look like black holes could be nested within one another.

Space-time isn't expanding into anything because general relativity is what we call a background independent theory. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein sets out to explain what this means ...
