Kornmesser A recent study explored teleparallel gravity and its potential to resolve the tension surrounding the expansion of the universe in a way that general relativity cannot. In the early 20th century, our … Read more

The detailed mechanisms of how matter from beyond the event horizon falls into a black hole have been revealed in a new paper. As predicted by Einstein’s theory of gravity, there is a point at which material stops circling the black hole and falls straight down, suddenly plunging beyond the point of no return. Now … Read more
