“In the moment that you carve the space-time, you can play with that curvature to make the time come in a circle and make a time machine,” Alonso-Serrano told USA TODAY. She explained ...

The main question is: if, according to the principles of curvature development in the theory of relativity, can a time machine be created? In other words, can we cause space-time to curve in such ...

Einstein’s theory of general relativity, where gravity is caused by the curvature of space-time, is awesome. It has been confirmed to an incredible level of precision, extending to fifteen ...

Thanks to three-atom interferometry, we can, for the first time, directly measure the curvature of space. Understanding the Earth's interior better than ever is the first thing we're going to gain ...

An artist's impression of Earth's gravity well. The idea that gravity is the result of the curvature of space-time is a core principle of Einstein's theory of general relativity. An artist's ...

The orbit of Mercury is shifting very gradually over time due to the curvature of space-time around the massive sun, according to NASA. As the closest planet to the sun, Mercury’s perihelion ...

Just as waves spread out when a boat moves in water or a stone is thrown in a pond, gravitational waves are distortions in the curvature of space-time caused by motions of matter that propagate ...
