It has been over two decades since the discovery of dark energy. Scientists have therefore had more than 20 years to decode the secrets of this invisible substance that appears to be pulling the ...

Astronomers have produced the largest 3D map of the universe, which can be explored in an interactive VR video. In the process, they’ve uncovered some tantalizing hints that our understanding of ...

The universe is expanding, but astronomers still cannot agree on exactly how fast. That mismatch, known as the Hubble tension ...

Astronomers have mapped the universe's quasars in unprecedented detail thanks to a ream of accidental observations from the Gaia observatory. The new "3D catalog" is expected to offer researchers ...

A massive survey of the cosmos is revealing new details of one of the most mysterious facets of the universe, dark energy. Intriguingly, when combined with other observations, the data hint that dark ...

Why it matters: Researchers at Berkeley Lab have created the largest 3D map of the universe, with a precision of 1 percent. But what they discovered is startling in its implications and raises ...

A team of top astronomers has joined forces to build a three-dimensional map of the universe which they hope will provide some answers on the make-up of dark energy. A group of astronomers looking to ...

The most detailed 3D map of the universe is now being developed by DESI, which has already charted millions of galaxies.

DESI has made the largest 3D map of our universe to date. Earth is at the center of this thin slice of the full map. In the magnified section, it is easy to see the underlying structure of matter in ...

Astronomers plan to gain insight into the existence of the ‘mysterious’ dark matter by creating the first three-dimensional map of the universe, a project lead by UA astronomer Daniel Eisenstein. The ...

A 3D map of our cosmic neighborhood has revealed hot and cold regions as well as an "escape tunnel" from our local bubble. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...
