ESA’s Euclid Telescope Charts Over a Million Galaxies in Landmark First Data
ESA’s Euclid space telescope has captured about 1.2 million galaxies in its first year, providing one of the most detailed wide-field surveys of the universe ever made. Covering distances up to 10 billion light-years, Euclid’s clear, expansive imaging is helping astronomers study galaxy shapes, mergers, dwarf galaxy populations, and the role of...

New Study Suggests Universe's Expansion May Be Slowing, Not Accelerating
Professor Carlos Frenk of Durham University, who wasn't involved in the study, called the findings noteworthy.

Dark Matter and Dark Energy Might Not Exist After All, New Study Suggests
A new theory suggests dark matter and dark energy may not exist. Physicist Rajendra Gupta’s model proposes that the universe’s forces weaken over time, naturally explaining cosmic expansion and galactic motion without unseen matter or energy.

Is the Universe Slowing Down? Astronomers Detect Signs of Fading Dark Energy
Astronomers from Yonsei University and DESI data analyses indicate dark energy, long believed constant, may be weakening. Corrected supernova results hint that cosmic acceleration is slowing—a possible “cosmic slowdown.” If true, this could help resolve the Hubble tension and redefine how the universe’s expansion and ultimate fate are under...

Keio University Team Measures Ancient Cosmic Temperature, Confirming Big Bang Prediction
Using ALMA, Keio University scientists measured a 5.13 K cosmic background temperature from 7 billion years ago—matching Big Bang predictions of universal cooling. This precise reading, based on quasar absorption data, is the most accurate at that epoch and offers strong confirmation of how the Universe’s temperature decreases over time.

Dark Matter Theories Suggest Hidden Mirror World and Origins at the Edge of the Universe
Two new studies from UC Santa Cruz propose that dark matter may have originated from a hidden mirror world or been radiated into existence by the universe’s expanding cosmic horizon. These theories, rooted in established physics, challenge traditional models and suggest dark matter could exist without interacting with ordinary matter, redefining ...

5 Bizarre Things Scientists Found In Space Recently
The universe is vast, and so are its mysteries. Here are five bizarre things that scientists have found in space recently.

Is Earth In A Giant Cosmic Void? Why New Research Could Change Everything
New research suggests Earth may lie inside a massive, billion-light-year-wide cosmic void, offering a possible solution to the Hubble Tension and changing our understanding of the universes expansion.

Viking Trade Routes More Expansive Than Thought, Finds Swedish Archaeologist After 5000 km Expedition
Swedish archaeologist Greer Jarett has completed a remarkable 5000 km voyage along the Norwegian coast in a Viking-style faering. His research, recently published in the Journal of Archaeological Method & Theory, reveals that Viking trade routes were significantly more expansive and decentralised than once believed.

New Research Suggests Dark Energy Is Evolving, Challenging Cosmology Models
New research from the DESI project suggests that dark energy, once thought to be a constant force, may actually be changing over time. This challenges long-held cosmological models that assume a stable influence of dark energy on the universe’s expansion. By mapping 15 million galaxies, DESI’s data raises new questions about cosmic evolution. S...

What Is Dark Energy? The Mystery Behind The Expanding Universe
Dark energy makes up roughly 70 percent of the universe, yet we know nothing about it. Around 25 percent of the universe is the equally mysterious dark matter, leaving just five percent for everything that we can see and touch.

Atacama Telescope Reveals Most Detailed Cosmic Microwave Background Yet
New images from the decommissioned Atacama Cosmology Telescope offer the most detailed view of the cosmic microwave background. The data reveals early cosmic structures, tracks primordial gas movement, and refines estimates of the universe’s total mass. While supporting existing models, it does not resolve the Hubble tension. Researchers are now ...

Weak Gravitational Lensing Examines Universe’s Structure: What You Need to Know
The universe's large-scale uniformity is under scrutiny through weak gravitational lensing. Researchers are analysing data from the Euclid Space Telescope to detect potential anisotropies in cosmic expansion. If confirmed, these findings could challenge the fundamental Cosmological Principle, which assumes the universe has no preferred direction. T...

Vera C. Rubin Observatory to Detect Millions of Exploding Stars
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory, set to begin its 10-year Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) later this year, will track millions of Type Ia supernovae to advance our understanding of dark energy. These supernovae, resulting from white dwarf stars in binary systems, will be studied in detail to provide crucial data on the universe’s acceleratin...
