Time travel has shifted from pure fantasy to a serious, if highly constrained, topic in modern physics. The equations that describe gravity, quantum fields and the structure of spacetime now allow ...

“The passage of time is fundamental to the theory of relativity: how you realize it, how you calculate it, and what influences it,” said Bijunath Patla, a physicist at the National Institute of ...

NPL has shared the results of a time dilation demonstration—which shows that time travels faster as height increases, as predicted by Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity. The demonstration ...

Thanks to Albert Einstein, the US Government wants to establish an official time zone for the Moon. It has less to do with jet lag and more to do with how gravity affects time and can throw a lot of ...

110 years ago today, Albert Einstein published his General Theory of Relativity, which redefined the relationship between matter and gravity. Suddenly, our mysterious universe made a little more sense ...
