"We were amazed by the fact that these observatories can detect about 100 black holes just 250 million years after the Big ...

“Using newer mathematical tools, my colleague and I have demonstrated a new theory that may accurately describe the universe.

What does it mean to be to space-time? The seemingly simple question gets to the essence of twentieth-century physics and has ...

Just as ocean waves shape our shores, ripples in space-time may have once set the Universe on an evolutionary path that led to the cosmos as we see it today.

Deep in the first moments of the Big Bang, the entire cosmos shook and rumbled. Those quakes still reverberate to the present ...

Two blind spots torture physicists: the birth of the universe and the center of a black hole. The former may feel like a moment in time and the latter a point in space, but in both cases the normally ...

The fabric of expanding space as illustrated over cosmic time. One of the consequences of the expansion is that the farther away a galaxy is, the faster it appears to recede from us, and that the ...

Few ideas in modern science have reshaped our understanding of reality more profoundly than space-time — the interwoven ...

Astronomers have discovered the most monstrous supermassive black hole ever. At 36 billion times more mass than our sun, it’s ...

How the Universe Will End Scientists think they know how the universe began, but what happens at the other end of the space-time continuum was a deep, dark mystery-until now 20 minute read ...

Researchers suggest gravity's role as cosmic binder could be revealed by slight ripples in the space-time continuum.

During the Planck era, the universe was so small that our laws of physics break down. To dive deeper back in time, we’ll need new scientific language.
