October 16, 2017 'Beam of invisibility' could hide objects using light Once thought of as the province of only "Star Trek" or "Harry Potter," cloaking technologies could become a reality with a specially designed material that can mask itself from other forms of light when it is hit with a "beam of invisibility," according to a new study.
October 5, 2017 Nobel Prize for Physics: Einstein would be 'flabbergasted' by gravitational wave win Albert Einstein would be pleased — but flabbergasted — to hear the details of humanity's first direct detection of gravitational waves, according to one of three scientists who just won the Nobel Prize for the discovery.
October 4, 2017 Scientists still baffled by mysterious sonic weapon attack on US embassy in Cuba As the U.S. government considers closing its embassy in Cuba, scientists remain baffled by the mysterious sonic weapon that was apparently used to target American diplomats in Cuba.
October 4, 2017 Nobel Prize awarded for sensational gravitational waves discovery BERLIN—As expected by many, the 2017 Nobel Prize for physics went to three scientists who helped detect gravitational waves, ripples in space-time predicted by Einstein.
October 4, 2017 Einstein proof: Nobel winners find ripples in the universe For decades astronomers tried to prove Albert Einstein right by doing what Einstein thought was impossible: detecting the faint ripples in the universe called gravitational waves. They failed repeatedly until two years ago when they finally spotted one. Then another. And another. And another.
