An international team of astronomers led by Canadian researchers has found something the universe wasn't supposed to have: a galaxy cluster blazing with hot gas just 1.4 billion years after the Big ...

It's hard to get a sense of the scale of the universe from our little corner of it, but scientists realized decades back that the universe is expanding. This naturally led to questions about the ...

For a quarter century, cosmology has rested on a simple but audacious idea: that a fixed “cosmological constant” drives the ...

The most massive structure in the Universe, the Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall, challenges cosmological models with its colossal scale. A recent study using gamma-ray bursts, the most energetic ...

Scientists from the University of Sheffield suggest that dark matter and neutrinos may interact, challenging existing ...

Aug. 29 (UPI) --Early universe observations by the James Webb Space Telescope cannot be explained by current cosmological models. These models estimate the universe to be 13.8 billion years in age, ...

Reproducible scientific software demonstrates that the CMB does not uniquely fix H₀, resolving the Hubble tension without conflicting with Planck data This is professional-grade scientific software, ...

An expanding universe complicates this picture just a little bit, because the universe absolutely refuses to be straightforward. Objects are still emitting light, and that light takes time to travel ...

James is a published author with multiple pop-history and science books to his name. He specializes in history, space, strange science, and anything out of the ordinary.View full profile James is a ...

Current models suggest the massive reservoirs of gas that form the intracluster medium are collected, and then heated, by gravitational interactions as an immature, unstable galaxy cluster matures and ...
