Does a cosmic ‘glitch’ in gravity pose a challenge to Albert Einstein’s greatest theory?

by

There is no denying the amazing predictive power of Albert EinsteinThe 1915 theory of gravity and general relativity – yet the theory still shows inconsistencies when it comes to calculating its effect at large distances. And new research suggests that these inconsistencies could be the result of a “cosmic glitch” in gravity itself. In the … Read more

Black hole-like ‘gravastars’ could be stacked like Russian tea dolls

by

A newly developed solution to the equations at the heart of Albert Einstein‘s most revolutionary theory suggests that hypothetical stars called “nestars” could be made of stacked gravitational stars, or “gravastars,” like Russian tea dolls, also known as matryoshka dolls. One of the most impressive things about Einstein’s 1915 theory of gravity, general relativity, is … Read more
