A new theory claims dark matter and dark energy don’t exist — they’re just side effects of the universe’s changing forces. By ...

As if dark energy weren't already mysterious and baffling enough, new research suggests that this unknown force may not be ...

Cosmology is already a complicated field of study, so switching up the variables is extra rough.

A remarkable new study challenges the findings of Nobel Prize winning research into how our universe has changed over time.

Most people rarely experience the effects of dark matter in ordinary life. However, we live in an environment affected by ...

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 ...

A mathematical investigation of galactic data suggests elusive dark matter is confined to the rules of gravity.

Dark matter has two central properties: it has mass like regular matter, and unlike regular matter, it reacts weakly or not at all with light. Neutrinos satisfy these two criteria, but neutrinos move ...

"Dark matter could be captured by stars and accumulate inside them. If that happens, it might also interact with itself and annihilate, releasing energy that heats the star." "Dark dwarfs" may sound ...

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 ...
