A Russian cosmonaut named Sergei Krikalev has physically travelled further into the future than almost any other human being in history — across six spaceflights and 803 cumulative days at orbital velocity, Einstein’s theory of special relativity has made him approximately 0.02 seconds younger than other people his age
Einstein’s special theory of relativity, published in 1905, made a number of strange predictions about how time and…
A company outside Boston just craned the second 48-ton half of a steel donut into Tokamak Hall and pushed its compact fusion reactor to 75% built, a machine chasing more energy out of fusion than it puts in by 2027, twelve years before the cathedral-sized ITER in France
