When future astronauts head to the Moon, they may very well be wearing space suits created, in part, through a collaboration between two University of Delaware academic departments, a new UD alumnae ...
Massive ripples in the very fabric of space and time wash over Earth constantly, although you'd never notice. An astrophysicist is trying a new search for these gravitational waves. University of ...

The discovery hinges on a simple but profound idea, that space and time are not a rigid stage but a flexible medium that can be bent, stretched, and even swirled by gravity. By tracking how a doomed ...
Space-time is the most powerful idea in modern physics. Yet a bold new philosophical challenge suggests we may not actually understand what space-time is — and that confusion about language is quietly ...
Second only to black holes, neutron stars—incredibly dense star remnants—are the densest objects in the universe. When neutron stars collide, they create ripples in the fabric of space and time that ...
(via PBS Space Time) Space seems fundamental. To build a universe, surely you need something to build it on or in. Many, maybe most physicists now think that the fabric of space emerges from something ...
Did you hear the one about the star that died twice? In 2014, astronomers saw the explosion of the Refsdal supernova. Then, 360 days later, it went bang again. This bizarre sequence of events was down ...
