If this scenario plays out, “the world as we know it would collapse like a house of cards,” says one theoretical physicist.

Space can often feel distant and abstract, like watching a cosmic ... Now, anyone can quite literally grasp a piece of the universe. These models also provide a compelling way to explore concepts ...

This mismatch, known as the Hubble tension, has shaken confidence in the model that’s long explained how the universe behaves. Now, a new study proposes something bold. What if the universe isn ...

The most widely accepted theoretical model, the Lambda/Cold Dark Matter model (ΛCDM), says the universe is growing at 67-68 km/s/Mpc. But what astronomers see through their equipment is a little ...

That’s because, for years, scientists theorized that dark matter, an unseen force, helps hold the universe together. However, new research suggests that our current models of the universe are ...

Current models say the universe expands evenly in all directions, with no sign of rotation. This idea fits most of what astronomers observe. But it doesn't explain the so-called "Hubble tension ...
