The universe appears to be expanding at a staggering speed, much faster than expected. A recent study reinforces this observation, confirming an expansion that contradicts current theoretical models.

Enabled by supercomputing, University of Pretoria (UP) researchers have led an international team of astronomers that has ...

Scientists will separate the wheat from the chaff with the help of a tremendous amount of data processing and fitting the data to existing theories and models of the universe’s known objects.

Astronomers have been confounded by recent evidence that the universe expanded at different rates throughout its life. New findings risk turning the tension into a crisis, scientists say.

Our universe does host life, but it’s not the most optimal universe for life. Published in 1962 by American astronomer Frank ...

Dark matter can't be too heavy or it might break our best model of the universe, new research suggests. We have an abundance of evidence that something fishy is happening in the universe.

New data reveals a 3-million-light-year filament connecting two galaxies, each of which hosts a supermassive black hole.

Too fast, even. A new measurement confirms what previous -- and highly debated -- results had shown: The Universe is expanding faster than predicted by theoretical models, and faster than can be ...
