Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still ...

A bizarre "cosmic glitch" in the theory of how the gravity of the universe works may have been mended. The strange glitch in Einstein's description of gravity in his theory of general relativity may ...

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

Humans have been studying total solar eclipses for millennia to better understand the cosmos. Total eclipses have helped prove Einstein's theory of relativity and led to the discovery of helium. Here ...

110 years ago today, Albert Einstein published his General Theory of Relativity, which redefined the relationship between matter and gravity. Suddenly, our mysterious universe made a little more sense ...

A new solution to Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity suggests hypothetical gravitational stars that look like black holes could be nested within one another. When you purchase through ...

BOULDER- Black holes, time travel and E= mc^2. They are all related to Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity. How many of us, though, can actually explain any of it? This year, Einstein's theory ...

NPL has shared the results of a time dilation demonstration—which shows that time travels faster as height increases, as predicted by Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity. The demonstration ...
