The tiny bots follow patterns of light and "artificial space-time," navigating like craft following the curved space around a ...

A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.

For over a century, scientists have been intrigued to decode the perplexing scenery behind contemporary physics. It's been up for many years, and yet the experts still have no idea how to bridge the ...

Imagination has never been the most intractable problem in the physics of warp drive; it has been bookkeeping. The Alcubierre concept of 1994, the celebrated one, fits in the general relativity theory ...

So far, the most accurate model describing gravity is still Einstein’s theory of general relativity. It states that gravity as we feel and observe it is a kind of side effect of the fabric of ...

A growing body of theoretical and experimental work in physics is converging on a striking possibility: time, the dimension humans experience as a constant forward flow, may not be a fundamental ...

New impressions A visualization of a curved space–time “sea” from the general-relativity simulations carried out by the authors.(Courtesy: James Mertens) From the Genesis story in the Old Testament to ...

It feels so obvious that time moves forward that questioning it can seem almost pointless.
