Astrophysicists often talk about gravitational lensing, one of the most interesting aspects of light’s infamous particle-wave duality. This phenomenon shows in a predictable and measurable way how the small mass within each photon of light shooting out from a distant star actually bends the light in the gravitational pull of dense objects along its path. … Read more
An international team of physicists has announced a “significant advance” in laser science that provides engineers with a practical path to extreme light intensities that can dramatically increase the intensity of high-power laser light. The team of physicists behind this breakthrough suggested that ultra-powerful lasers created using their approach could allow scientists to probe fundamental … Read more
A new scientific paper is adding new fuel to one of space science’s most stubborn fantasies: a “warp drive” that could make distant stars feel like forever away. The research proposes a new way to create so-called warp bubbles, distorted regions of space-time that carry spacecraft, without the ships themselves breaking the cosmic speed limits. … Read more
As the telescope advances, The Unistellar Odyssey Pro is something truly special. We think it’s one of the best smart telescopes in terms of image quality, ease of use, and ability to filter out skylight. And if you’re early, you can get it for about $700 off with Unistellar’s Earth Day offer. Unistellar is offering … Read more
Researchers have detected for the first time that voids in the sky are moving faster than people. speed of light And they broke the speed limit of the universe without breaking the theory of relativity. Recent studies have shown void acceleration. The researchers used recent advances in ultrafast electron microscopy to measure the voids of … Read more
