The key to Albert Einstein’s success was to intensely focus his attention on a small number of projects rather than trying to achieve a dozen things at the same time.
Einstein’s push for general relativity highlights an important reality about accomplishment. We are most productive when we focus on a very small number of projects [...]

A dissection one of the best known equations of all time:
The speed of light is a huge, huge quantity. Square it, and it’s even bigger. What this tells us is that a small, insignificant amount of mass can generate an amount of energy so fantastic it’s barely fathomable. The most powerful nuclear weapon ever [...]

The Time Traveler’s Wife is the lastest in a long line of time travel themed movies, and according to physicist Dave Goldberg, makes for a more realistic representation of time travel than most of the (fiction) served to date.
But this is interesting, time travel is (theoretically) only possible to points in time where a time [...]

Small reflectors left on the Moon by missions such as Apollo 11 are being utilised by a group of scientists who are aiming laser beams at them in an attempt to test the soundness, or otherwise, of aspects of Einstein’s general theory of relativity.
In the mid-1960s, when NASA asked for suggestions for experiments [...]

When Albert Einstein said nothing could travel faster than the speed of light, he apparently said nothing about sound waves, according to John Singleton of the Los Alamos National Laboratory, who says because radio waves do not constitute “particles and information” they are therefore exempt (in a fashion) from the universe’s ultimate speed limit.
Most people [...]

Ten New Scientist articles taking in subjects ranging from time travel, the existence of the multiverse (a collection of universes), to problems with Einstein’s theory of special relativity.

Another of Albert Einstein’s accomplishments, in conjunction with Hungarian physicist Leo Szilard, was the invention of a refrigerator that operates without electricity, or the environmentally damaging freons currently used in fridges.
Malcolm McCulloch, a scientist at Oxford University in Britain, is leading a team to revive development of the idea.
Einstein and Szilard’s idea avoids the need [...]

Childish superstition: Einstein’s letter makes view of religion relatively clear
A recently published letter written by Albert Einstein finally clarifies his views in regards to god and religion.
In the letter, he states: “The word god is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honourable, but still [...]

Biggest Black Hole in Universe Discovered – and it’s BIG
It threatens to gobble up all of creation, but rest easy, at least the behaviour of the largest known black hole, and that of a (slightly) smaller orbiting companion, are consistent with the observations Albert Einstein made in his theory of General Relativity.
Whatever gave birth to [...]
