How confusing inevitability with reality built decades of paradox. What if general relativity never actually tells us that ...

Ever since humans first gazed up at the night sky, the Universe has filled us with awe and wonder. Lately, however, it's also ...

A distant red giant star is rippling with seismic vibrations, and for the first time, a NASA spacecraft has translated those ...

When black holes need a place to crash, they prefer a nice, bright quasar. So says Chiara Mingarelli, an assistant professor of physics in Yale’s Faculty of Arts and Sciences and a key member of an ...

In the early universe, moments after the Big Bang and cosmic inflation, clusters of exotic, massive particles could have ...

Breakthroughs in science often begin with a simple question and years of tireless exploration. From the way tiny molecules slip through microscopic pores to the staggering behavior of matter near ...

The study of black holes within the framework of General Relativity has long been enriched by investigations into angular momentum inequalities. These inequalities serve as geometrical constraints ...

Our universe may have been born in a gravitational crunch that formed a very massive black hole—followed by a bounce inside it. The Big Bang is often described as the explosive birth of the universe—a ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Black holes usually form from stars that burn out and collapse in on themselves, but that cannot explain the red spark of light that could be a ...
