Dark energy’s role in driving the universe’s accelerated expansion presents a critical challenge in astrophysics, inspiring ongoing research and space missions dedicated to uncovering the nature of this enigmatic force. Around 13.8 billion years ago, the universe started with a

Read Full ArticleAbout 400,000 years post the Big Bang, the universe was a very dark place. The glow of the cosmos’s explosive birth had cooled, and space was packed with dense gas – mostly hydrogen – with no sources of light. Gradually,
Read Full ArticleOne of the most mortifying aspects of our Cosmos is the knowledge that all things will eventually pass away. New stars and stellar systems, although are likely to keep forming for many billions or even trillions of years to come,
Read Full ArticleThe invisible stuff called dark matter remains one of the biggest mysteries in cosmology. A fresh study suggests, this strange substance possibly arises from a 'dark mirror universe' that's been allied to ours since the dawn of time. What if
Read Full ArticleAstronomers have discovered a quasar 12 billion light years away hosting a SMBH (supermassive black hole) that gobbles up mass more than the mass of our sun every day A quasar 500 trillion times brighter than our sun has grabbed
Read Full ArticleThe universe is expanding at an ever-accelerating rate, some but not all scientists are in agreement that dark energy is the cause. Maybe, instead, our universe keeps bumping with and absorbing smaller 'baby universes,' a new hypothetical study suggests. Our
Read Full ArticlePlanck space mission of the European Space Agency has made available detailed maps of the cosmos' oldest light, but even this only nicks the surface of the universe’s full extent. In Short The observable universe is the part we can
Read Full ArticleResearchers at Switzerland based world's biggest particle accelerator have put forth a proposal for a new, comparatively larger, supercollider. Its aim understandably is to discover new particles that would revolutionize physics and lead to a more thorough understanding of how
