The six-year Dark Energy Survey has released its full results, showing that two leading models of cosmology are equally valid ...

For a generation, cosmologists have worked with a simple story: the universe is not only expanding, it is expanding faster ...

For much of the twentieth century, scientists expected the expanding universe to slow over time. The opposite turned out to be true. Space is stretching faster today than in the past, and the precise ...

Six years of Dark Energy Survey observations combine four cosmological probes to refine measurements of cosmic expansion, dark energy behavior, and matter clustering across billions of years.

Scientists have made a new calculation of the speed at which the universe is expanding, using the data taken by the powerful new James Webb Space Telescope on multiple galaxies. Above, Webb’s image of ...

The Dark Energy Survey catalogued 669 million galaxies, using 140 million for precise measurements to help understand why the universe's expansion is accelerating rather than slowing down.

The Big Bang is often described as the explosive birth of the universe – a singular moment when space, time and matter sprang into existence. But what if this was not the beginning at all? What if our ...
