Scientists have used theloudest gravitational wave signal ever recorded to put Albert Einstein’s century-old theory of general relativity to its toughest test yet. This extraordinary signal, known as ...

A record-breaking gravitational wave signal let scientists "listen" to a distant black hole merger and put Einstein's gravity to its toughest test yet.

An experiment measuring a single atom's recoil confirmed that observing a particle destroys interference, settling the ...

Researchers believe they have found the signal of a pulsar, the ancient core of a rapidly spinning star, at the center of the Milky Way, near a supermassive black hole. This discov ...

Scientists hope to probe the nature of general relativity through a possible pulsar found in the center of the Milky Way, ...

Part I of the Yousuf & Estrellita Karsh Estate includes photographic prints from Yousuf Karsh’s personal collection and items related to photography subjects. As always, collectors will be able to ...

Ripples in space-time from a pair of merging black holes have been recorded in unprecedented detail, enabling physicists to test predictions of general relativity ...

Albert Einstein reminds us through this quote that true intelligence lies in clarity, not complexity. If you can explain an ...
