A study published in Nature Astronomy has found a nearly 3-sigma statistical preference for non-zero interactions between ...

Its electronic gaze will sift through endless voids and millions of galaxies to hunt dark matter.

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 ...

A quiet shift in the numbers behind the universe’s growth is pushing scientists toward a bold possibility. Two of the cosmos’ most elusive players, dark matter and neutrinos, may not be strangers ...

Dark energy is one of those cosmological features that we are still learning about. While we can't see it directly, we can most famously observe its effects on the universe—primarily how it is causing ...

A new theory claims dark matter and dark energy don’t exist — they’re just side effects of the universe’s changing forces. By rethinking gravity and cosmic timelines, it could rewrite our ...

For more than two decades, the standard model of cosmology has stood as a reliable guide to the universe. Known as Lambda Cold Dark Matter, or ΛCDM, it weaves together dark energy, dark matter, and ...

You know that feeling when you find something hiding right where you've been looking all along? Astronomers just had that moment on a cosmic scale. A galaxy so faint, so nearly invisible that no one ...

New supercomputer simulations hint that dark energy might be dynamic, not constant, subtly reshaping the Universe’s structure. The findings align with recent DESI observations, offering the strongest ...

The Dark Energy Survey Collaboration collected information on hundreds of millions of galaxies across the universe using the U.S. Department of Energy-fabricated Dark Energy Camera, mounted on the U.S ...

Dark matter is a real pain in the neck. The term dark matter itself refers to a hypothetical substance that seems to solely interact with the rest of the universe via gravity and to serve as the ...
