The idea that the universe itself might be intelligent sounds like science fiction, yet a growing group of researchers is ...

Contrary to popular belief, our universe may not be constantly expanding after all. A groundbreaking study by South Korean ...

The universe has no brain. It has no gray matter, no nervous system, no neurons firing electrical impulses—and yet, that ...

If true (and it’s a pretty big “if”), Vopson’s new gravitational study would shake the foundations of the currently accepted view of the universe. In his paper, Vopson writes that his new work could ...

Scientists analysing dark energy say the universe’s expansion may be slowing, raising the possibility gravity could ...

For decades, the prevailing view has been that dark energy causes the universe’s expansion to accelerate indefinitely, potentially ending in a scenario known as the “Big Rip,” in which galaxies, stars ...

Another batch of the ‘impossible’ galaxies turned out not to be standard galaxies at all, but a new type of object that ...

The shape of the universe is not something we often think about. But my colleagues and I have published a new study suggests ...

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope in Chile has released its final batch of data after 15 years — and it proves that the Hubble tension is very real.

With sapphire waterfalls, lava rain and orbits around dead stars, these distant worlds push the limits of what’s possible.

By studying tiny distortions in the shapes of distant galaxies, scientists mapped dark matter and dark energy across one of the largest sky surveys ever assembled. Their results back the standard ...

The James Webb Space Telescope blasted off from a launchpad in French Guiana in 2021, before reaching a spot in orbit a million miles away. It soon began breaking cosmology.
