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.

Global climate models capture many of the processes that shape Earth's weather and climate. Based on physics, chemistry, fluid motion and observed data, hundreds of these models agree that more carbon ...

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 ...

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

Rosie is a freelance writer living in London. She has covered everything from ancient Egyptian temples to exciting medical breakthroughs, but she particularly enjoys writing about wildlife, ...

A tiny fraction of a second following the Big Bang, the universe allegedly experienced the most inflationary period it has ever known. During this inflationary era, space expanded faster than the ...

Gravity waves are oscillatory disturbances that propagate through the atmosphere as a consequence of buoyancy acting as a restoring force. These waves facilitate the vertical transfer of energy and ...

A Richland roundabout is being narrowed to a single lane Wednesday as the city removes one of two sculptures inspired by the gravitational-wave research that won the 2017 Nobel Prize for Physics. The ...

Time variations of (black) zonal and (red) meridional winds along trajectories of LODEWAVE 3. Solid lines represent LODEWAVE data, while dashed lines represent PANSY radar data at an altitude of 18.5 ...
