Modern cosmology reveals a universe expanding uniformly without a spatial center or edge. The Big Bang wasn't a localized ...

As the universe expands, it feels like it must be spreading out from some initial point. But a physicist explains why that’s ...

The team explores one of the greatest discoveries of modern astronomy - that our universe is expanding - and the new questions it raises about how the cosmos works. The team explores one of the ...

That cosmologists cannot agree on one of the most elementary facts about the universe is striking enough. But that uncertainty produces others, too: it makes it impossible to calculate an exact age ...

DESI observations suggest black holes may generate dark energy by consuming stellar matter. The idea resolves puzzles about neutrino mass and cosmic expansion. These are remarkable times for probing ...

A new Utah Valley University study is providing new evidence in a debate astronomers across the world haven’t been able to agree on — how fast the universe is expanding. The findings may add more fuel ...

A more precise distance to the Coma galaxy cluster was measured. This measurement increases the discrepancy between observed and predicted universe expansion rates. The discrepancy, called the Hubble ...

The universe is expanding, and while that fact is fascinating, it also creates a question that trips people up: if […] ...
