Dark energy is one of the most mysterious and fascinating components of our universe. Discovered in the late 20th century, dark energy is believed to make up about 70% of the universe’s total energy content. This elusive force is responsible for the accelerated expansion of the universe. Stick around, and
We need to consider alternatives to dark matter that better explain cosmological observations. Do constants of nature—the numbers that determine how things behave, like the speed of light—change over time as the universe expands? Does light get a little tired traveling vast cosmic distances? It was believed that dark matter
Black Hole Mergers have long intrigued astrophysicists, and new calculations now reveal that pairs of supermassive black holes can merge into a larger black hole. This groundbreaking research addresses the long-standing ‘final parsec problem’ by uncovering previously overlooked behaviors of dark matter particles that facilitate these cosmic collisions. Breakthrough in
“This research sheds new light on the nature of dark matter and its distribution in the Milky Way.” Scientists are set to use dead star “clocks” to illuminate one of the universe’s most enigmatic phenomena: dark energy. These cosmic timekeepers, known as pulsars, are rapidly spinning neutron stars formed when
Welcome to Galaxy Secrets! Have you ever wonder how the universe all began? It started with the Big Bang, a huge explosion that made everything. The universe is always growing, and scientists measure this with something called the Hubble constant. We’ll also talk about galaxies, solar systems, and cool stuff
Dark energy is one of the most mysterious and fascinating components of our universe. Discovered in the late 20th century, dark energy is believed to make up about 70% of the universe’s total energy content. This elusive force is responsible for the accelerated expansion of the universe. Stick around, and we’ll dive into these amazing space secrets together! How Dark Energy Affects the Universe The impact of dark energy on the universe is profound. As scientists have observed, cosmic acceleration
We need to consider alternatives to dark matter that better explain cosmological observations. Do constants of nature—the numbers that determine how things behave, like the speed of light—change over time as the universe expands? Does light get a little tired traveling vast cosmic distances? It was believed that dark matter and dark energy explained these cosmological phenomena, but recent research indicates that our universe has been expanding without dark matter or dark energy. Doing away with dark matter and dark
Black Hole Mergers have long intrigued astrophysicists, and new calculations now reveal that pairs of supermassive black holes can merge into a larger black hole. This groundbreaking research addresses the long-standing ‘final parsec problem’ by uncovering previously overlooked behaviors of dark matter particles that facilitate these cosmic collisions. Breakthrough in Black Hole Mergers In 2023, researchers detected a persistent ‘hum’ of gravitational waves filling the Universe, hypothesized to originate from numerous supermassive black hole mergers. These black holes, each billions
“This research sheds new light on the nature of dark matter and its distribution in the Milky Way.” Scientists are set to use dead star “clocks” to illuminate one of the universe’s most enigmatic phenomena: dark energy. These cosmic timekeepers, known as pulsars, are rapidly spinning neutron stars formed when stars at least eight times as massive as the sun die. The extreme conditions of neutron stars make them ideal laboratories for studying physics in environments found nowhere else in
Welcome to Galaxy Secrets! Have you ever wonder how the universe all began? It started with the Big Bang, a huge explosion that made everything. The universe is always growing, and scientists measure this with something called the Hubble constant. We’ll also talk about galaxies, solar systems, and cool stuff like dark matter and black holes. These things make up our universe and are super interesting. In this article, we’ll explore all these topics and more. Ready to dive in?
