Perhaps one of the most famous experiments in physics has been giving us the wrong message all these years. For nearly two ...

Physicists in China have brought one of Einstein’s thought experiments into reality—but not quite with the outcome he hoped ...

While the concept of time travel has long captured public imagination, modern physics actually approaches time in a much more ...

A physicist has proposed a bold experiment that could allow gravitational waves to be manipulated using laser light. By ...

It feels like every week now we're writing a new article about how 3I/ATLAS is not an alien technology. But it's worth ...

Li-Fi is a wireless data system remarkably similar to Wi-Fi, but uses light to send information. Data rates can hit a gigabit a second, while maintaining line-of-sight privacy. pureLiFi is showing off ...

Scientists have turned a long-standing sci‑fi idea into working hardware, using pure light to move data wirelessly through the air instead of relying on radio waves or copper traces. The result is a ...

Driven by the global wave of informatization, the real-time transmission, efficient processing, and intelligent analysis of massive data have become ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

A distant pulsar’s radio signal flickers as it passes through space, much like stars twinkle in Earth’s atmosphere. By ...
