For those who watch gravitational waves roll in from the universe, GW250114 is a big one. It's the clearest gravitational ...

Einstein is often linked to nuclear weapons, but few people know he once believed they were essentially impossible. The reason wasn’t politics — it was physics, and what scientists understood at the ...

There is a tendency to imagine genius as smooth and uninterrupted. As if the great thinkers moved from one insight to the next without pause. Albert Einstein does not quite fit that picture. For all ...

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 ...
