An artist's illustration of the James Webb Space Telescope. Something is awry in our expanding cosmos. Nearly a century ago, the astronomer Edwin Hubble discovered the balloon-like inflation of the ...
The Standard Model of particle physics is currently our best understanding of how the universe works – but it only describes about five percent of everything in it. The rest is made up of what we call ...
Astrophysicists have a fairly accurate understanding of how the universe ages. That’s the conclusion of new results from the Dark Energy Survey (DES), a large international science collaboration, ...
The universe is expanding and that expansion is accelerating under the power of dark energy and eventually all matter and energy will be dispersed over such unthinkable distances that nothing can stop ...
