Besides quantum mechanics, another interesting topic in physics is relativity. Let’s take a look at it! Of all the force fields, the gravitational field is the one man has known for the longest time.

Albert Einstein won the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics, but not for relativity—the theory that made him famous. This article unpacks why the Nobel committee hesitated: Alfred Nobel’s rules, distrust of ...

A time warp can be thought of as anything that disrupts the flow of time by making it go faster or slower. While the idea may seem fantastical, time warps were predicted by Albert Einstein's ...

Physicists from JILA — a CU Boulder and National Institute of Standards and Technology institute — were able to measure an effect called time dilation at the smallest scale ever, which they say could ...

Physicists long believed time was a basic feature of the universe. But it may just emerge from cosmic information.

Hello,<BR><BR><BR>I have been trying to think of a way to phrase this question so I do not appear to be a complete moron because I do not think I am but here goes.<BR><BR>Why is each observers frame ...

Among the oft-repeated predictions of Albert Einstein's famous theory of relativity is that if a twin travels through the cosmos on a high-speed rocket, when he returns to Earth he will be noticeably ...

Relativity has the funds to keep trying if it fails out of the gate, but time is of the essence. Several competitors in the small-launch vehicle arena — namely, Rocket Lab, Virgin Orbit and Astra — ...

Relativity Space made a flurry of announcements on Wednesday about its past and future. The company is going bigger, and it has already started to do so. In an interview with Ars, the company’s chief ...

First of all, the prevailing quantum theory, quantum field theory, is fully relativistic from the onset. Relativity is “built into” the theory, so to speak. And it’s the only quantum theory that is ...

Everyone knows Albert Einstein was a genius, but can you explain what he’s famous for? Arguably his foremost theory, his general theory of relativity, turns 100 years old this week. It was actually ...
