It might sound like science fiction, but it’s pure physics. A new experiment has shown what Albert Einstein predicted over 60 years ago — objects moving near light speed appear oddly twisted or ...

In humans, as well as most animal species, perception of object motion is critical to successful interaction with the surrounding environment. Yet, as the observer also moves, the retinal projections ...

The idea was first hypothesized about 70 years ago. In a bizarre repercussion of Albert Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity, objects traveling close to the speed of light appear flipped over. The ...

The hyperdrive from Star Wars appears to depict an ultra-relativistic motion through space, extremely close to the speed of light. Under the laws of relativity, you neither reach nor exceed the speed ...

The James Webb Space Telescope, the most powerful space telescope ever built, has picked up highly unusual readings from an ...

In recent years, the detection of rogue objects exiting our solar system has captivated the scientific community and the ...

“When an object like a fish travels through water, it creates a trail of tiny whirlpools with each flick of its fin,” Morris ...

If the Sun were to spontaneously cease emitting light, we wouldn't know about it for about 8 minutes and 20 seconds. The light that's arriving here on Earth, right at this very moment, was emitted ...
