One of the biggest mysteries in science - dark energy - doesn't actually exist, according to researchers looking to solve the riddle of how the Universe is expanding.
In case dark matter didn't seem mysterious enough, a new study proposes that it could have arisen before the Big Bang.
A new study suggests that dark matter may have originated from a separate "Dark Big Bang," occurring shortly after the birth of the universe.
A team of researchers has just found that the predicted curvature of space-time calculated using relativity does not always quite match up to what we observe
Using data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), astronomers have completed the most precise gravity test ever taken.
If the hypothesis that black holes are related to dark energy is proven correct, it would revolutionize conventional knowledge about black holes and dark energy.
Strange thing about our galaxy's nucleus, according to new research: stars that stay young indefinitely by feeding off dark matter particles.
Scientists have grappled with the fundamental forces that govern our universe, chief among them being gravity, and more recently, dark matter.
The Euclid mission, led by ESA (the European Space Agency) with contributions from NASA, has released five new images that showcase the space telescope’s ability to explore two large-scale cosmic mysteries: dark matter and dark energy.
The current theoretical model for the composition of the universe is that it’s made of ‘normal matter,’ ‘dark energy’ and ‘dark matter.’ A new study challenges this.
The curvature of space-time around a colossal mass has yielded the most detailed measurement of the cosmic distribution of dark matter yet.
Something is causing nothingness to grow, squeezing its way into the gaps between galaxies to gently push the large scale structure of the Universe apart at an ever increasing rate. We call this something "dark energy".
A newly discovered star is so large, bright, and strange that its appearance could be pointing us towards a clump of dark matter in the sky.
International research has found the first evidence of a massive galaxy with no dark matter. The result is a challenge to the current standard model of cosmology.
In a first, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) may have glimpsed a rare type of star that astronomers aren’t even sure exists. These “dark stars” might not have been fueled not by nuclear fusion but by the self-annihilation of dark matter.
