A rare manuscript featuring early calculations that led to Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity sold for just over $13 million at an auction in Paris Tuesday, becoming the most expensive ...

This temporal lag is a direct consequence of Albert Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity. The rule is simple: the weaker ...

The constancy of the speed of light is a pillar of modern physics, but questions persist about its absolute universality.

Einstein's theory of general relativity, published in 1916, built upon his earlier work, including special relativity and the mass-energy equivalence, both published in his "Annus Mirabilis" in 1905.

Levi's has faithfully reissued its legendary leather jacket favorited by the father of the theory of relativity, with only ...

Albert Einstein’s legendary reputation as history’s greatest theoretical physicist, which National Geographic seeks to mine for humanity in Genius, is due in large part to his theory of relativity — ...

The supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way is the most extreme astrophysical object located within a million light-years of Earth. With an estimated four million solar masses, it's the ...

There are few scientific concepts that are as famous as Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity, but even the iconic theory isn't set in stone. Einstein's theory of general relativity states ...

This week’s 100th anniversary of Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity is a geeky cause for celebration, but what’s arguably the concept’s toughest test has just gotten under way. General ...

Like Max Planck, Albert Einstein first studied mathematics because he was told that everything interesting in physics had already been discovered. But in 1905, Einstein, a young cleark at the Swiss ...

In 1915, Albert Einstein put forth a new theory of gravity: General Relativity. Instead of every mass in the Universe instantly reaching across to every other mass and exerting an attractive force, ...
