Researchers propose that hydrogen gas from the early Universe emitted detectable radio waves influenced by dark matter. Studying these signals, especially from the Moon’s radio-quiet environment, ...

Mathematicians are challenging the idea that dark energy is responsible for the accelerating expansion of the universe. In a ...

Scientists have been gifted with a clearer picture of the expansion of the universe and dark energy, the mysterious force driving the acceleration of this expansion, than ever before. This comes ...

Scientists are shining a brighter light on dark matter thanks to a new high-resolution map, unveiling the invisible material that shapes everything we see. Using James Webb Space Telescope’s (JWST) ...

For more than a century, physics has been built on two great theories. Einstein's general relativity explains gravity as the bending of space and time. Quantum mechanics governs the world of particles ...

Astronomers have unveiled a new catalog of massive galaxy clusters, revealing insight on the evolution of the universe. Galaxy clusters — the largest gravitationally bound structures in the universe — ...

The Dark Energy Survey collaboration is releasing results that, for the first time, combine all of the data from an intensive six-year mapping of galaxies in the universe. The new analysis, of ...

A model of the cyclic universe suggests that dark matter could be a population of black holes predating the Big Bang. There are different versions of the “multiverse.” The most popular model—that of ...

Mysterious blasts of radio waves from across the universe called fast radio bursts help astronomers catalog matter. ESO/M. Kornmesser, CC BY-SA If you look across space with a telescope, you’ll see ...

Scientists have long assumed our universe would continue on for trillions of years, but a new study presents a much shorter life span for the cosmos: Our universe might last only another 33 billion ...
