Dark energy and black holes are two of the most mysterious topics when it comes to space, but they might actually be linked.

New strategies may soon allow scientists to test dark energy theories within our own solar system, linking cosmic-scale physics to local observation. Science advances through a cycle of proposing ...

Astrophysicists at the University of Chicago have developed physics-based models suggesting that dark energy could be changing over time. Dark energy, the mysterious force causing the universe to ...

Black holes are eaters of all things, even radiation. But what if their rapacious appetites had an unexpected side effect? A new study published in Physical Review Letters suggests that black holes ...

Astrophysicists have presumed for nearly a century that the universe will just keep expanding for all eternity, driven by an invisible force called dark energy. But new data suggest that this is ...

The universe is approaching the midpoint of its 33-billion-year lifespan, a Cornell physicist calculates with new data from dark-energy observatories. After expanding to its peak size about 11 billion ...

For decades, astronomers have believed that dark matter and dark energy make up most of the universe. However, a new study suggests they might not exist at all. Instead, what we perceive as dark ...

WASHINGTON, Sept 11 (Reuters) - Dark matter, mysterious invisible stuff that makes up most of the mass of galaxies including our own Milky Way, is confounding scientists again, with new observations ...

Dark energy, the invisible force making up 70% of the universe, accelerates cosmic expansion and could one day cause the “Big ...

A recent study by Rajendra Gupta, published in "Galaxies," proposes that cosmic phenomena conventionally ascribed to dark matter and dark energy can be explained by the temporal weakening of ...
