Whether space-time exists should neither be controversial nor even conceptually challenging, given the definitions of “space-time,” “events” and “instants.” The idea that space-time exists is no more ...

A mathematical test for the nature of space-time – the fabric of physical reality – may be the first step towards novel computer-like devices that process information using gravity. Eleftherios-Ermis ...

Two blind spots torture physicists: the birth of the universe and the center of a black hole. The former may feel like a moment in time and the latter a point in space, but in both cases the normally ...

One of the most awkward parts of writing a book is that, eventually, authors have to ask people for “blurbs” – the endorsements that you see on the cover of a book, encouraging you to buy it. I am now ...

Ever wonder what time it is on the moon? Soon there will be an answer to that question. The White House on Tuesday directed NASA to establish a first-ever unified standard of time for the moon and ...

Time dilation, brought about by the relativistic expansion of space, has resulted in the observed slowing of 'clocks' in the early universe. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

The whole universe is humming. Actually, the whole universe is Mongolian throat singing. Every star, every planet, every continent, every building, every person is vibrating along to the slow cosmic ...

Exploring the BTZ black hole in (2+1)-dimensional gravity took me down a fascinating rabbit hole, connecting ideas I never expected—like black holes and topological phases in quantum matter! When I ...

Universidad de Murcia provides funding as a member of The Conversation ES. Expressions linking space to time are a common part of our day to day lives. You might say the morning “flew by”, or that ...
