Over ten years ago, the Dark Energy Survey (DES) began mapping the universe to find evidence that could help us understand the nature of the mysterious phenomenon known as dark energy. I'm one of more ...

The Dark Energy Survey Collaboration collected information on hundreds of millions of galaxies across the universe using the U.S. Department of Energy-fabricated Dark Energy Camera, mounted on the U.S ...

Recent findings suggest that dark energy may not be a fixed constant but could evolve. It has led scientists to theorize that the universe might, in the end, reverse its expansion and collapse in a ...

New data from major dark-energy observatories suggest the universe may not expand forever after all. A Cornell physicist calculates that the cosmos is heading toward a dramatic reversal: after ...

The Dark Energy Survey collaboration is releasing results that, for the first time, combine all of the data from an intensive six-year mapping of galaxies in the universe. The new analysis, of ...

Left: A key figure from the report, exploring what the cosmologically coupled black holes, or CCBH, hypothesis implies about the mass of neutrinos, or "ghost particles." Right: An annotation of this ...

Dark energy is the mysterious force that drives the expansion of the universe, and scientists have acquired something interesting. They have captured the clearest picture of the expansion of the ...
