It's well established that the universe is expanding, but there's serious disagreement among scientists over how fast it's happening.

The cosmic microwave background (CMB) is radiation that fills the universe almost uniformly—basically the leftover glow from ...

Dark energy is one of those cosmological features that we are still learning about. While we can't see it directly, we can most famously observe its effects on the universe—primarily how it is causing ...

So cosmologists feel confident in modelling the universe using the “maximally symmetric” description of space-time in Einstein’s theory of general relativity. This symmetric vision for the universe, ...

They show up as a mathematical solution in general relativity, basically as a time-reversed version of a black hole. Some ...

Neutrino particles have extremely small masses, yet there are so many of them that they carve out the large-scale structure of the entire universe. Scientists are getting close to figuring out how.
