New research suggests that dark energy isn't needed to explain the acceleration in the expansion of the universe — instead suggesting giant voids in space are creating an illusion. When you ...

What is the structure of our physical reality? Physicists have long imagined space and time interweaving into “space-time”, the metaphorical fabric that underlies the cosmos. But there may be ...

This result, alongside other measurements of the early universe, aligned with predictions made by the standard model of cosmology. But it has been swiftly contradicted by Cepheid distance ladder ...

When OpenAI announced a new generative artificial-intelligence (AI) model, called o3, a few days before Christmas, it aroused both excitement and scepticism. Excitement from those who expected its ...

Johannes Thingnes Boe has moved his retirement forward to the end of the biathlon season having previously claimed he would call it a day after the 2026 Winter Olympics. The Norwegian star has won ...

Norway’s Johannes Thingnes Bø, the world’s top male biathlete, announced he will retire after this season instead of after the 2026 Olympics. Bø, 31, held a tearful press conference Saturday in ...

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 ...

It lines up closely with other local measurements, confirming that the nearby Universe seems to expand more quickly than the standard model would anticipate. “Over the last decade or so, there’s been ...

Why does the universe defy all logic? From dark energy density to fundamental forces, dive into the two groundbreaking explanations that challenge everything we know about existence. Leonardo Di ...
