Scientists in Greece have laid out a mathematical framework to help explain a so-far-unsolved gap in our understanding of how ...

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

According to physics, the universe and everything in it can be explained by just a handful of equations. They’re difficult equations, all right, but their simplest feature is also the most mysterious ...

Last time I wrote about new data that overturns the standard cosmological model. Before anyone starts dusting off their ...

Let's rewind the clock back…oh, I don't know, let's say a hundred years. It was 1917, and Einstein had just developed his ...

We know that the universe is getting bigger. And we know that the speed that the universe is getting bigger is also getting bigger. The standard assumption is that the acceleration rate is itself ...

A new study of one of the universe's fundamental constants casts doubt on a popular theory of dark energy, scientists say. Dark energy is the name given to whatever is causing the expansion of the ...

Dark energy, which forms almost three-quarters of the universe, is the most mysterious stuff known to man. A new set of Chandra X-Ray Observatory data, however, has given scientists good information ...

Those of you who know my writing will know that I don’t use many analogies. Analogies have a very useful place in helping people understand difficult concepts, but they also have a tendency to be a ...
