Today marks the centenary of an experiment which proved Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity - but what exactly is that theory? Dr Matthew Bothwell, an astronomer at the University of ...

Einstein's theory of general relativity is still valid 13 billion light years from Earth, new research has revealed. Scientists say it's the furthest distance anyone has managed to analyse velocities ...

ALBERT EINSTEIN is rightfully celebrated as one of the world's brightest minds thanks to his monumental contributions to the field of theoretical physics. Listen to the genius himself explain his most ...

A new study validates Einstein's theory of general relativity in a distant galaxy for the first time. This study supports our current understanding of gravity and provides more evidence for the ...

Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity has held up pretty well after a century out in the world. The famous theory, which Einstein published in 1915, remains the bedrock upon which scientists' ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

Explore Einstein's Discovery of General Relativity, a pivotal moment in theoretical physics shaping our understanding of gravity. Busy day of meetings related to business of three separate committees.

A BLACK HOLE discovery led scientists to call for a new theory to explain what happens at the centre of these cosmic anomalies, with one scientist pointing to the possibility that "Einstein's theory ...

Einstein's theory of general relativity has passed its toughest test with flying colors, a new study reports. General relativity, which Einstein proposed in 1916, holds that gravity is a consequence ...

Today marks the centenary of an experiment which proved Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity - but what exactly is that theory? Dr Matthew Bothwell, an astronomer at the University of ...

It’s the year 2100. You wake up alone in a small, windowless room. The only other thing in the room is a small ball. Maybe the room is located in your city, but maybe it’s inside that new spaceship ...

One hundred years ago today, Albert Einstein submitted his Theory of General Relativity, a pillar of modern physics that has transformed our understanding of space, time and gravity.
