Time Runs Faster on Mars: Scientists Confirm Martian Gravitational Time Dilation
Time Dilation Reaches Mars: What Changed the Debate? For decades, Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity has explained a surprising fact: time is not absolute. Its rate depends on gravity and motion. On Earth, this means clocks run slightly differently than on satellites or in deep space. Now, a new line of experiments on Mars…

Time Dilation on Mars: New Evidence Time Runs Faster There
New Evidence That Time Runs Faster on Mars The saying that time is relative gains new, tangible meaning as scientists report measurable differences in how quickly clocks tick on Mars compared with Earth. In recent experiments, researchers have confirmed that time dilation caused by gravity is not confined to our planet. While Albert Einstein’s theory…

Time on Mars: Why Clocks Tick Differently on the Red Planet
Introduction: A Crucial Twist in Relativity on Mars Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity tells us that time isn’t a universal constant. The rate at which a clock ticks depends on gravity and motion. In practical terms, clocks tick more slowly in stronger gravity. Earth’s gravity is greater than Mars’s, so, all else being equal, time…

Cosmic Fireworks: The Largest Black Hole Flare Ever Detected
What was observed A recent study reports the discovery of the most powerful flare ever observed from a supermassive black hole. The event, which occurred when a colossal star wandered too close to the black hole’s gravitational grip, unleashed a brilliant outburst of energy visible across vast cosmic distances. The arrived light is described as…

Twin Black Holes in OJ287: The First Radio Image of a Cosmological Binary
Cosmic milestone: seeing two black holes orbiting each other A long-sought visualization has arrived. Astronomers have captured the first radio image of two supermassive black holes orbiting each other within the quasar OJ287, located about 5 billion light-years away. This groundbreaking image provides visual confirmation of a binary black hole system that had been predicted…

The First Black Hole We Saw Changes Its Magnetic Weather: M87*’s Dynamic Magnetism
M87*: A Supermassive Black Hole With Dynamic Magnetic Weather When scientists released the first image of a black hole in 2019, the focus was on the shadow and the surrounding glow. But new time-series data from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) reveal something equally dramatic and unexpected: the magnetic field near M87*’s edge is not…
