Scientists experimentally confirmed what we’ve known to be true for half a century—darkness can “travel” faster than light.

A photon emitted from a star a billion light-years away arrives at a telescope having experienced no time whatsoever. Not ...

(Aitor Diago/Moment/Getty Images) For the first time, physicists have observed that 'holes' in light can move faster than the ...

The speed of light is treated like one of the most certain numbers in science, yet the deeper story is far more unsettling ...

Light usually travels in straight lines, but what if it could twist, spiral, and ...

A puzzle with only three moves may sound simple. In quantum physics, it can still break classical logic. That is the heart of ...

In 1887, one of the most important experiments in the history of physics took place. American scientists Michelson and Morley failed to measure the speed of Earth by comparing the speed of light in ...

While the terms "quantum physics" and "Theory of Relativity" are used casually every day, not many people know what they really mean. Yet these theories have had a profound impact not only on science ...

Morehead State University physics faculty and students are partnering with the Rowan County Public Library to host a hands-on ...

Can we turn back time? Ask a savvy physicist, and the answer will be “it depends.” Schemes for retrograde time travel abound but usually involve irreconcilable paradoxes and rely on outlandish ...
