An ultra-massive black hole has been uncovered using gravitational light bending, something theorized by Albert Einstein in his General Theory of Relativity. A team of astronomers have used a bent ...

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — New details are emerging about Multnomah County’s proposed deflection center set to open in a couple of weeks, including what defines “deflection.” This all comes following the ...

The other day I got bored and noticed this weird thing happened when I held my finger up to my eye, so I had to science it and figure it out! Let me know if you try these light-bending experiments too ...

Stanford astrophysicist Dan Wilkins and his colleagues were studying a supermassive black hole when something caught their attention— a series of bright flares of X-rays. The emission of such ...

THE idea of detecting the Einstein deflection by measures of two neighbouring stars has occurred to many people, and Prof. C. V. Raman writes to suggest that the apparent distance of the two ...

Guy Bartal, from the light refraction lab at Berkeley, talks with Scott Simon about the research they're doing on "invisible cloaks." Bartal overseas research in this lab, and is a co-author of two ...
