Paul Sutter is an astrophysicist who, in addition to studying things like cosmic voids and galaxy clusters, enjoys helping those of us who aren’t astrophysicists understand how the universe works…
By all accounts, black holes should not exist, and for a long time, they were shrugged off as mere mathematical artifacts — an annoying bug in the otherwise elegant machinery of general relativity…
Researchers from the Dark Energy Survey, headed by physics professor Klaus Honscheid, have reached a new milestone mapping the growth of the universe from its infancy to present day. The new…
We have complete freedom of movement within space, but we cannot avoid our future. Time seems to have an "arrow," whereas the spatial dimensions are ambidextrous. Given the unity between time and…
