A team of physicists led by Mir Faizal argues the universe cannot be simulated, saying reality includes non-computable truths beyond any algorithm or AI model ...

Spacetime isn’t something that exists; it’s a model for describing how events happen. Treating events as objects creates philosophical confusion and fuels misconceptions, such as time-travel paradoxes ...

Physicist Mir Faizal, Adjunct Professor with UBC Okanagan’s Irving K. Barber Faculty of Science, was not out to shatter the ...

New strategies may soon allow scientists to test dark energy theories within our own solar system, linking cosmic-scale physics to local observation. Science advances through a cycle of proposing ...

Centuries before anyone pointed a telescope at the sky, Isaac Newton figured out how gravity works. He showed that any object with mass pulls on every other object—a result that explained falling ...

The theoretical physicist and best-selling author finds inspiration in politics and philosophy for rethinking space and time.

Theoretical physicist Alex Lupsasca is pushing for a space telescope to glimpse the thin ring of light that is thought to surround every black hole.

In the 10 years since the first detection of gravitational waves, we have detected hundreds of these waves produced by the ...

As the collapsed core of a massive star, a neutron star is a small but incredibly dense object, packing up to three times the ...

And these relative moves have triggered a sell signal for U.S. stocks in NDR's equity modeling, as the smoothed 20-day change of the U.S. relative strength line (see chart) has fallen to its lowest ...

It is a springtime of revolution throughout the world in 1919 and not just the political kind. Era-defining advances in ...

In Interstellar, Miller’s planet orbits close to the black hole Gargantua, where gravity is so strong that time runs much slower. This is gravitational time dilation, a prediction of Einstein’s ...
