Physicists who work with a concept called string theory envision our universe as an eerie place with at least nine spatial dimensions, six of them hidden from us, perhaps curled up in some way so they ...
Physicists have taken a bold step beyond Einstein's special theory of relativity, proposing an expansion of special relativity that includes observers moving faster than light. This fresh perspective ...
In a groundbreaking exploration of physics, researchers have revealed a way to extend Albert Einstein's special theory of relativity to accommodate superluminal observers—those moving faster than ...

It is believed that matter, motion, gravity, and everything else we know of originated from the three dimensions of space and one of time. However, a new idea challenges this theory, suggesting that ...
When the biggest galaxy survey to date in the world, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), created a three-dimensional map of the universe via the observed distribution of galaxies, it became clear ...
The largest-ever three-dimensional map of the cosmos, plotting out some 15 million celestial objects, could help reveal the ultimate fate of the universe. Astrophysicists know that the universe is ...
A three-dimensional brane represents one possible state of 3D space at a specific instant — a snapshot of the universe. As time ticks by, it generates a collection of branes, like the successive pages ...
