The theory was developed by Neils Bohr's great-grandson. The use of a special type of atom could make even the most advanced atomic clocks more precise, scientists believe. If confirmed, this ...

The changing frequencies of the clock would shed more light on the changes on Earth, as well as gravitational fields in space, according to experts. As per the plan, a prototype for this kind of ...

NASA’s 2019 Deep Space Atomic Clock mission demonstrated the best atomic clock in space to date, Safronova said, but different types of clocks — based on much higher frequencies — have been developed ...

By using light to emulate the structure of space-time, researchers can better understand black holes – and the exotic objects ...

Those light cycles are the "tick" of the clock. By averaging a subset of the 21 clocks together, NIST has created a system that can count the time to within one quadrillionth of a second.

Relativity: Clock in Outer Space. 3 minute read. TIME. ... the precisely spaced radio pulses coming from light-years away seemed to be the distant clock needed to measure earth time.

A mysterious light has been blinking in space every 21 minutes for 35 years–and scientists have no idea what it is. ... Like a ticking—or, rather, flashing—clock, ...
