What could possibly go wrong? The post Scientists Experimenting With Quantum Effect That Some Fear Could Cause Chain Reaction ...

We consider a vacuum to be the lowest energy state of the Universe. But it's possible that there's an even lower-energy, more ...

The conclusion of DESI's first survey marks an important milestone for cosmology, which finds itself in a bind for the best ...

Here’s a fun dark matter solution. The invisible and as yet hypothetical substance could be made of “relic” black holes that ...

The cosmological constant has been a problem in physics since Einstein, but new research may show why it takes the value that ...

Astrophysicists have presumed for nearly a century that the universe will just keep expanding for all eternity, driven by an invisible force called dark energy. But new data suggest that this is ...

Two steps forward, one step back. The post Physicists Have a Major Problem With the Universe appeared first on Futurism.

Interest in the multiverse theory, suggesting that our universe is just one of many, spiked following the release of the movie "Everything Everywhere All At Once." The film follows Evelyn Wang on her ...

The team successfully built the largest, highest-resolution 3D map of the cosmos ever constructed. The completed map charts ...

Scientists studying a mysterious effect called cosmic birefringence—a subtle twist in the polarization of the universe’s oldest light—have developed a new way to reduce uncertainty in how it’s ...

We have known for several decades that the universe is expanding. Scientists use multiple techniques to measure the present-day expansion rate of the universe, known as the Hubble constant. These ...
