Scientists have found the “clearest evidence yet” that the universe we inhabit is a giant hologram, paving the way towards reconciling one of physics’ most pressing issues: the relationship between Einstein’s theory of relativity and quantum physics. In other words, we could be living inside a giant 3D projection of what is actually a two-dimensional space, similar to an IMAX movie theater... 

For the first time ever, scientists have been able to measure the precise spin rate of a ‘supermassive black hole’. The findings will provide some clue as to how some of the most mysterious objects in our universe began to form. The black hole is located in the NGC 1365 galaxy, located 56 billion light years away from us, and two million times the mass of the Sun. By its very nature, a... 

Speed-of-light experiments give baffling result: Albert Einstein's special theory of relativity is being challenged by findings by the Cern team. Scientists have said they have clocked subatomic particles travelling faster than light – a feat that, if true, would break Albert Einstein’s special theory of relativity and undermine laws that underpin physics. The Cern team says a neutrino...
