Latest about dark matter
Warped supernova spotted by James Webb Space Telescope could settle a longstanding debate
Gravitationally lensed images of two different supernovas in the same galaxy can be used to measure the expansion rate of the universe.
Intergalactic 'stream of stars' 10 times longer than the Milky Way is the 1st of its kind ever spotted
While hunting for dark matter, astronomers accidentally discovered the first known stellar stream stretching between galaxies. The trail of stars is also the longest ever seen.
Life might have been possible just seconds after the Big Bang
Some physicists have hypothesized that in the earliest moments of the Big Bang, the forces of nature were so extreme and so exotic that they could have supported the growth of complex structures.
'Dark force' theory could solve 2 open cosmic mysteries
A new theory suggests the universe's most mysterious and dominant form of matter could exert a "dark force."
Could a 'supervoid' solve an unrelenting debate over the universe's expansion rate?
Measurements of how fast the universe is expanding differ depending on how you measure the rate. Could a huge under-density of galaxies, including the Milky Way, be to blame?
Dark matter may be hiding in the Large Hadron Collider's particle jets
A new study helped scientists better constrain the possible properties of dark matter particles.
The universe is expanding faster than theory predicts – physicists are searching for new ideas that might explain the mismatch
The universe is not just expanding – its rate of expansion is accelerating. And that expansion rate is even faster than the leading theory predicts it should be, leaving cosmologists puzzled.
Dark matter-hunting satellite ARRAKIHS to launch in 2030. Here's how it will work
The European Space Agency is slated to launch a satellite in 2030 that's meant to probe the nature of dark matter.
