Scientists are homing in on the nature of a mysterious force called dark energy, and nothing short of the fate of the universe hangs in the balance. The force is enormous — it makes up nearly 70 ...
Dark matter is thought to pull galaxies together, while dark energy pushes them apart The European space telescope Euclid, a veritable ‘detective of the dark universe’ aided by AI and humans ...
Dark energy makes up roughly 70% of the universe, yet we know nothing about it. Around 25% of the universe is the equally mysterious dark matter, leaving just 5% for everything that we can see and ...
Tyas The universe is a strange place: just 5% of the mass of everything that exists is made up of regular matter. The rest is made up of 25% dark matter and 70% dark energy. Dark matter is already ...

It is thought to account for around 70% of the universe's matter and energy. The mysterious "stuff" called dark matter makes up another 25%, and ordinary matter comprising stars, planets ...
The name dark energy was given to the phenomenon driving this acceleration, the effects of which seem to be partially offset by ordinary matter – and an also unknown thing called dark matter. The ...
These findings strengthen hints that dark energy may not be constant over time, challenging the current standard model of cosmology. The fate of the universe depends on the balance between matter and ...
The fate of the universe hinges on the balance between matter and dark energy: the fundamental ingredient that drives its accelerating expansion. New results from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic ...
Long-accepted theory explaining the nature of our universe may need updating, new analysis indicates
Taken alone, DESI’s data are consistent with our standard model of the universe: Lambda CDM (where CDM is cold dark matter and lambda represents the simplest case of dark energy, where it acts as a ...
The evolving cosmos Dark energy and dark matter are two of the universe's most puzzling components. Together they make up roughly 95% of the cosmos, but because they do not interact with light ...
Evidence suggests that we are suspended in a cosmic sea of dark matter, a mysterious substance that shapes galaxies and large structures in the universe but is transparent to photons, the carriers ...
