Jul 9, 2024 · Martin Rees is awarded the Wolf Prize for shaping our deepest understanding of the Universe. His outstanding contributions range from high-energy astrophysics, including mechanisms for gamma-ray bursts, powerful radio jets, and black hole formation in galactic nuclei, to cosmic structure formation and the physics of the earliest stars and ...
Jul 20, 2024 · Martin Rees, a leading astrophysicist, has conducted influential theoretical work on subjects as diverse as black hole formation and extragalactic radio sources, and provided key evidence to contradict the Steady State theory of the evolution of the Universe.
Jul 1, 2024 · Martin Rees is awarded the Wolf Prize for shaping our deepest understanding of the Universe.

5 days ago · In his 2018 book On the Future: Prospects for Humanity, the astrophysicist and cosmologist Martin Rees discussed mankind’s destiny in space. He predicted that as time goes on the practical arguments for manned space flight will become less convincing—too dangerous, too expensive, and other planets may not be hospitable enough to ...
Jul 12, 2024 · Fortunately for life, these cataclysms occur less than once in a million years in Milky Way Galaxy, according to physicist Martin Rees. General Relativity predicted that spacetime produces gravitational waves; gravity is essentially bending of spacetime in presence of matter.
Jul 2, 2024 · Professor Martin Rees — ‘In the beginning there were only probabilities. The universe could only come into existence if someone observed it. It does not ...
3 days ago · Suddenly, what we do in the next few decades will shape the future of the earth, perhaps for millions of years. As Martin Rees, the Astronomer Royal, puts it: “Our Earth is 45 million centuries old. But this century is the first in which one species—ours—can determine the biosphere’s fate.”
