Evidence that the universe is rotating was recently delivered by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), which found that two-thirds of galaxies are rotating in the same direction. This suggests a lack ...
He's a member of the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX), is studying dark energy from an earlier time in the universe's existence than DESI.HETDEX is also focused on sound ...
For centuries, people have looked to the stars, asking how it all began—and how it might end. Now, thanks to a bold new study ...
What we saw in the DESI experiments, and now strengthened by our South Pole Telescope observations, is that dark energy is ...
Think of dark energy as the "evil counterpart" to gravity–an "anti-gravity" force providing a negative pressure that fills the universe and stretches the very fabric of spacetime. As it does so ...
1.) The Universe would be a little bit different.Right now, in our 13.8 billion year old Universe, 32% of the energy density is in the form of matter, 68% is dark energy, the expansion rate is 67 ...
More the fate of the Universe. Whether dark energy changes in strength or sign is key to knowing whether we'll end in a Big Freeze, a Big Rip, a Big Crunch, or some other, even more exotic fate.
The universe's contents include ordinary matter - stars, planets, gas, dust and all the familiar stuff on Earth - as well as dark matter and dark energy. Ordinary matter represents perhaps 5% of ...
Called the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument, it uses a telescope based in Tucson, Arizona to create a three-dimensional map of the universe's 11-billion-year history to see how galaxies have ...
One of the big mysteries of the universe is how it's expanding. The phenomenon causing that expansion is known as dark energy — and recently, scientists have started to wonder if its changing.
