Einstein's theory posits that mass distorts space. This distortion can bend light from distant objects. Astronomers use this effect to find dark objects in space.

Albert Einstein is rightly known as one of the most prolific scientific geniuses of our time. But in between formulating his theories of Special and General Relativity, establishing the equivalence of ...

This quantum balancing act—long debated by Einstein and Bohr—was tested without traditional “spring” components, instead ...
