Boosting one term in a complex equation helps scientists explain how the results could change. Scientists in Greece have laid ...

Churning nano-wormholes could explain the clash in our cosmological constants. The wormholes add magnitude to a math parameter called the Gauss-Bonnet term. Boosting one term in a complex equation ...

Dark energy—the term used to describe whatever is causing the universe to expand at an increasing rate—is one of the universe’s greatest mysteries. The widely accepted theory at the present moment ...

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 ...

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

The cosmological constant, which explains how and why the universe is expanding, has been previously described by astrophysicists as “the worst prediction in the history of physics” due to its ...

The Milky Way galaxy in which our solar system lies may exist in a "giant void", where space is about a fifth as dense as the universal average. This is the conclusion of a team of researchers from ...

If true, it could mean the universe is destined to collapse rather than expand forever. Einstein proposed the cosmological ...
