There is no denying the awesome predictive power of Albert Einstein's 1915 theory of gravity, general relativity — yet, the theory still has inconsistencies when it comes to calculating its effect on ...

Researchers have discovered a potential 'cosmic glitch' in the universe's gravity, explaining its strange behavior on a cosmic scale. A group of researchers at the University of Waterloo and the ...

Researchers have found a razor-thin, rotating string of galaxies inside a massive cosmic filament, revealing unexpected ...

Velocity streamlines within the reconstructed volume, with colored envelopes associated with the prominent nearby basins of attraction. The map and streamlines have been cropped to the region covered ...

A team of researchers believe they have identified a large, rotating structure 140 million light-years away from Earth. The structure, embedded within a larger filament, appears to challenge current ...

In 1965, British mathematician Roger Penrose proposed the cosmic censorship conjecture, a concept that suggests that singularities — regions where gravity is so strong that the fabric of spacetime ...

A newly-detected spinning galaxy filament is reshaping our understanding of cosmic structure, gas flows, and the origins of ...

In an article published in the June 2003 Astronomical Journal, researchers from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, the Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias in Spain, and Williams College ...

Scientists have uncovered a massive rotating structure in deep space, a 50-million-light-year cosmic filament where 14 ...

A group of researchers at the University of Waterloo and the University of British Columbia have discovered a potential “cosmic glitch” in the universe’s gravity, explaining its strange behaviour on a ...
