“Although in the external reality of general relativity, you’re an extended braidlike pattern in a static four-dimensional spacetime,” — Max Tegmark Copy Share Image
Gravitational waves will bring us exquisitely accurate maps of black holes - maps of their space-time. Those maps will make it crystal… — Kip Thorne Copy Share Image
So what I'm saying is why don't we think about changing Schrodinger's equation at some level when masses become too big at… — Roger Penrose Copy Share Image
Einstein was searching for String Theory. It not only reconciles General Relativity to Quantum Mechanics, but it reconciles Science and the Bible… — Roy H. Williams Copy Share Image
The math of quantum mechanics and the math of general relativity, when they confront one another, they are ferocious antagonists and the… — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
One of the most exciting things about dark energy is that it seems to live at the very nexus of two of… — Adam Riess Copy Share Image
General relativity is in the old Newtonian framework where you predict what will happen, not the probability of what will happen. And… — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
“Zero dwells at the juxtaposition of quantum mechanics and relativity; zero lives where the two theories meet, and zero causes the two… — Charles Seife Copy Share Image

Human rights are an aspect of natural law, a consequence of the way the universe works, as solid and as real as… — L. Neil Smith Copy Share Image
“Accelerating to speeds faster than light was, of course, impossible. General relativity had made that clear enough back in the twentieth century.… — Charles Stross Copy Share Image
Most of what Einstein said and did has no direct impact on what anybody reads in the Bible. Special relativity, his work… — Neil deGrasse Tyson Copy Share Image
Einstein had two new predictions from general relativity. One was that light would bend. That was tested in 1919, and basically, he… — Barry Barish Copy Share Image
“When an important change takes place in science, in which a new theory takes the stagw, the incoming theory is generally an… — John D. Barrow Copy Share Image
“In the early universe—when the universe was small enough to be governed by both general relativity and quantum theory—there were effectively four… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
“As mathematicians were uncovering the connection between zero and infinity, physicists began to encounter zeros in the natural world; zero crossed over… — Charles Seife Copy Share Image
“Removing zero from the universe might seem like a drastic step, but strings are much more tractable than dots; by eliminating zero,… — Charles Seife Copy Share Image
“The unsolved problems of the physical world now seem even more formidable than those solved in the twentieth century. Though in application… — Gerald Holton Copy Share Image

“We know that the uncertainty relation implies not only the absence of empty space but also the nature of the minimal content… — Henning Genz Copy Share Image
“Things have becone even more mysterious. We have recently discovered that when we make observations at still larger scales, corresponding to billions… — Lee Smolin Copy Share Image
