This is the first time that disk-jet co-precession has been clearly observed in a black hole system, which is truly exciting, ...
The theorized unseen structure of spacetime could also explain of the outstanding questions about the accelerating expansion ...
Spacetime itself would also need to be “quantized,” or broken down into constituent parts. This is what the notorious string theory attempts to do, as does loop quantum gravity, currently considered a ...
Astronomers have seen spacetime itself wobble near a spinning black hole for the first time. The discovery, revealed during a star’s destruction, confirms a major prediction of Einstein’s theory of ...
Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...
A supermassive monster lurks at the center of our galaxy, and astronomers have now discovered that it’s spinning so fast it’s warping the very fabric of spacetime into a football shape. According to ...
The first detection of gravitational waves in 2016 provided decisive confirmation of Einstein’s general theory of relativity. But another astounding prediction remains unconfirmed: According to ...
