New supercomputer simulations hint that dark energy might be dynamic, not constant, subtly reshaping the Universe’s structure ...

“If confirmed, this would have profound implications for the fate of the universe,” said The Guardian. The study raises the ...

The universe's expansion may actually have started to slow rather than accelerating at an ever-increasing rate as previously ...

Evidence now suggests the universe’s expansion has started to slow, not speed up. The findings imply dark energy is weakening ...

For decades, we have been taught that the universe is expanding faster and faster. That belief has influenced our view of ...

Astronomers may have misread cosmic acceleration for 27 years. The universe may be slowing down, not speeding up.

For almost a century, we have known that the universe is expanding. For several decades, evidence has suggested that the expansion of the universe is accelerating. Crucial to those estimates were the ...

The popular consensus among scientists is that the universe will continue expanding until the bitter end. A team of ...

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 ...

Dark-energy evidence suggests the universe will end in a “big crunch” roughly 20 billion years from now. The universe is nearing the halfway point of what may be a 33-billion-year lifespan, according ...

In the wake of bombshell findings that suggest dark energy might be weakening as the universe expands, physicists are considering replacing the standard cosmological model of the universe with exotic ...

Dark energy—the term used to describe whatever is causing the universe to expand at an increasing rate—is one of the universe’s greatest mysteries. The most widely accepted theory currently suggests ...
