Einstein's theory of general relativity suggests that the "memory" of ancient events, such as black hole mergers, may be etched into the fabric of space-time by gravitational waves. New research shows ...

A new theory suggests that gravity could possibly be the result of entropy. If true, this would mean that everything in the universe would fall apart if it all remained unchanged.

Get a sneak peek at Academy Award-winning actor Geoffrey Rush and newcomer Johnny Flynn as Nobel Prize-winning physicist Albert Einstein, in National Geographic's global event series GENIUS ...

On January 29, 1931, the world's premier physicist, Albert Einstein, and its foremost astronomer, Edwin Hubble, settled into the plush leather seats of a sleek Pierce-Arrow touring car for a visit ...

A recent study has investigated teleparallel gravity and its potential to resolve tension surrounding the expansion of the universe in a way that general relativity can't. In the early 20th ...

For more than a century, Albert Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity has provided a surprisingly accurate framework for ...

If gravity arises from entropy, scientists could unite Einstein's general relativity with the quantum realm while shedding light on dark matter and dark energy. A new recipe for gravity could help ...

The James Webb «Space Telescope» took a picture of a gravitational lens with a very unusual shape that creates the effect of an Einstein ring. The European Space Agency (ESA) has named this lens the ...

Astronomers also use gravitational lensing to map dark matter — an invisible substance that makes up about 85% of the universe's mass. They create the maps by observing how much dark matter ...

March 14 is often celebrated at Pi Day, but it's also the birthday of one of our greatest scientists whose work impacts us today.
