The idea was first hypothesized about 70 years ago. In a bizarre repercussion of Albert Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity, objects traveling close to the speed of light appear flipped over.

On May 29, 1919, a total solar eclipse helped to prove Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity. Einstein's theory ...

Others explore dark energy as something more dynamic. Still, others question whether Einstein’s theory of general relativity needs a rewrite. Testing these ideas requires vast sky surveys that ...

They found that the Lorentz contraction—a key part of Einstein’s theory of special relativity—doesn’t actually change how a fast object looks in a photograph. Instead, the object seems ...

The discovery in 1998 that the Universe is expanding faster over time shook the foundations of cosmology. This finding challenged deep-seated assumptions about how space behaves on the grandest scales ...

The new findings, a collaboration between TU Wien and the University of Vienna, once again confirm a key prediction of Einstein’s theory of relativity by making an optical illusion of relativistic ...

This was a spectacular confirmation of Albert Einstein’s century-old theory of gravity, general relativity. The 2017 physics Nobel went to three physicists who had made decisive theoretical and ...

EVIDENCE against the validity of the relativity theory was unfolded before the annual meeting, April 28, of the National Academy of Sciences by Prof. Dayton C. Miller, of the Case School of ...

What were termed to be final tests of the Einstein Relativity Theory were made by five scientific expeditions during the solar eclipse in Polynesia and the South Seas yesterday. The eclipse ...
