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

Faster-than-light travel may no longer be pure science fiction. This video explores the groundbreaking math behind warp drives, including the famous Alcubierre model that bends spacetime itself. Learn ...

Discovery of superluminal correlations within 2D hexagonal boron nitride could advance super-resolution electron microscopy ...

For the first time, researchers measured singularities in combined light and sound waves moving faster than the speed of light. The findings have implications in fluid dynamics, optics and many other ...

(Aitor Diago/Moment/Getty Images) For the first time, physicists have observed that 'holes' in light can move faster than the light itself. They're known as phase singularities or optical vortices, ...

We spoke to a genuine astrophysicist about the accuracy of Star Trek's approach to interstellar travel, the holodeck, and the ...

Every generation grows up with starships that jump across galaxies in a heartbeat, but the real universe is far less forgiving than the screen. The same physics that lets GPS satellites work and ...

In late 2020, physicist Harold “Sonny” White, PhD, research director of the nonprofit Limitless Space Institute, noticed something peculiar—and familiar—in a circular pattern of data plots generated ...
