New research challenges the long-accepted notion of singularities in black holes — the point where physics allegedly breaks ...

According to scientists, a real-world 'warp drive' could allow spaceships to jump between galaxies just like in Star Wars.

At long last, a unified theory combining gravity with the other fundamental forces—electromagnetism and the strong and weak nuclear forces—is within ...

Ever since general relativity pointed to the existence of black holes, the scientific community has been wary of one peculiar ...

According to this idea, electric and magnetic fields ... electromagnetism can be explained solely from the geometry of spacetime—just as Einstein had done for gravity.

Hic sunt leones," remarks Stefano Liberati, one of the authors of the paper and director of IFPU. The phrase refers to the hypothetical singularity ...

According to Einstein, masses bend and stretch spacetime ... then fall into these 'spacetime curves', creating the effects of gravity. In 1994, a scientist by the name of Miguel Alcubierre ...

It describes two alternative models, proposes observational tests, and explores how this line of research could also contribute to the development of a theory of quantum gravity. "Hic sunt leones ...
