A DECADE after scientists initially detected gravitational waves from colliding black holes, advanced technology and fortuitous timing have enabled researchers to capture the most detailed evidence ...

Book your tickets today to hear Edinburgh’s first resident philharmonic orchestra for almost 90 years brings its first annual ...

Ten years ago, astronomers made history when they first detected ripples in spacetime, called gravitational waves, from the collision of two black holes. That moment in 2015, known as GW150914, ...

On 14 January 2025, LIGO’s detectors in the US picked up the gravitational wave signal GW250114, caused by the collision of two black holes roughly 1.3 billion light-years away. This wasn’t the first ...

String Theory at the Hunter, in partnership with Lee University, will begin its 17th concert season this month, featuring six concerts with 21 of the world’s most skilled and sought-after musicians.

In this handout photo provided by the National Science Foundation, the Event Horizon Telescope captures a black hole at the center of galaxy M87 in an image released on April 10, 2019. (Photo by ...

Ripples in spacetime sent hurtling through the universe when two black holes smash into each other -- a phenomenon predicted by Albert Einstein -- have confirmed a theory proposed by fellow physicist ...

A new study published this week has confirmed a prediction about black holes that Stephen Hawking made more than 50 years ago. Using LIGO, Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory, experts ...

Gravitational-wave astronomy has exploded since 2015, capturing hundreds of black hole and neutron star collisions. With ever-clearer signals, researchers are testing Einstein’s relativity and Hawking ...

A decade ago, the universe whispered, and humanity, for the first time, had the tools to listen. On September 14, 2015, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) made history with ...
