A record-breaking gravitational wave signal let scientists "listen" to a distant black hole merger and put Einstein's gravity to its toughest test yet.

The sharpest black hole collision ever detected just gave Einstein another win—and raised hopes that the next one might rewrite gravity.

Scientists have used theloudest gravitational wave signal ever recorded to put Albert Einstein’s century-old theory of ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. A view of space with lots of specks of light indicating galaxies and a few streaks representing lensed light. There is no denying ...

A new recipe for gravity could help solve some of the universe's greatest mysteries. It suggests that the concept of "quantum ...

A newly detected gravitational wave, GW250114, is giving scientists their clearest look yet at a black hole collision—and a powerful way to test Einstein’s theory of gravity. Its clarity allowed ...

Einstein’s theory of gravity — general relativity — has been very successful for more than a century. However, it has theoretical shortcomings. This is not surprising: the theory predicts its own ...

A unified Theory Of Everything is the holy grail of physics, but gravity refuses to play ball. A newly proposed theory attempts to unify Einstein’s theory of gravity with quantum mechanics – and ...

To understand gravity, Einstein had to rethink space and time as a single connected fabric. He showed that mass bends this fabric, guiding how everything moves. NOVA is available to stream on pbs.org ...
