By measuring how energy waves wiggle in the sky over Earth, scientists have created a way to delve into the history of our 13.8 billion-year-old universe — starting right at its "first light." ...

Gravitational waves travel at the speed of light, but the astronomers realized a single rise and fall of one of the waves could take years or decades to pass by due to the space-time ripple effect.

Blowhole Energy Generating power from ocean waves isn’t exactly a new idea. Many have tried to turn the movement of waves into a renewable form of energy with varying degrees of success.

Researchers have developed a wireless energy source that generates electricity from simple mechanical motion, such as the waves in the ocean, the tap of a foot or the clap of a hand.
