Now, aided by improved instrumentation and a stroke of good fortune, a newly observed black hole merger offers the most definitive view so far of how black holes behave — and, in the process, provides long-sought confirmation of key predictions by Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking.

Time crystals arise from quantum interactions thought to prevent their formation https://phys.org/news/2025-09-crystals-quantum-interactions-thought-formation.html Nature has many rhythms: the seasons result from Earth's movement around the sun, the ticking of a pendulum clock results from the oscillation of its pendulum. These phenomena can be understood with very simple equations. However, regular rhythms can also arise in a completely different way—by themselves, without an external clock, through the complex interaction of many particles. Instead of uniform disorder, a fixed rhythm emerges—this is referred to as a "time crystal."
