Physics is a natural science that, compared to others, is less popular among the general population, both adults & children. However, awareness of the presence of physics in every corner of our ...

A team of international astronomers have identified a cosmic oddity unlike anything seen before: a galaxy bent by gravity into an Einstein Cross with not four but five distinct images.

Wave Observatory (LIGO) could potentially detect gravitational waves from an alien spacecraft as it makes its way through our galaxy, according to a team of physicists. The LIGO experiment is awesome ...

The space-time distortions induced by gravitational waves are incredibly minuscule. To sense them, LIGO and Virgo must detect ...
