Is the Universe Fine-Tuned for Life?
In their book, two Australian astrophysicists question the idea that our Universe “fine-tuned” for life, with some interesting conclusions.

In a new study, a team of researchers proposed that Dark Matter detectors could also search for the elusive force that is causing our Universe to expand (Dark Energy)!
Black holes have a pressure as well as a temperature, thanks to the thermodynamics of quantum gravity.
Using the XMM-Newton and NuSTAR X-ray telescopes, an international team of scientists were able to see light coming from behind a black hole for the first time!
Can waves of gravity be lensed by gravity? A recent study looks for lensed gravitational waves.
An alternative to general relativity predicts wormhole travel is possible, but only if you’re teeny-tiny.
A proposed experiment using super-cooled atoms could reveal the nature of quantum gravity.
The Theory of Relativity predicted the existence of black holes and neutron stars. Einstein gets the credit for the theory because of his paper published in 1915, even though other scientists’ work helped it along. But regardless of the minds behind it, the theory predicted black holes, neutron stars, and the gravitational waves from their …
Astronomers can now test the limit of relativity and whether new physics lies beyond Einstein’s model.
A new tool called the Black Hole Collision Calculator let’s users see just how powerful a collision between a black hole and any other celestial object would be.
