Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity, which suggests that gravity is due to the curvature of space and time, is more than 100 years old. And it’s holding up as researchers analyze the behavior of gravity in space — but it may not last forever, according to a new study.

Whitesburg resident Shaun Hammonds recently recorded a ‘soul-piercing’ howl coming from the forest.
