Here’s one of the most unsettling facts in all of science. The universe is not just expanding, it’s expanding faster and ...

Researchers confirm the universe's expansion is still accelerating, challenging previous claims of dark energy weakening and halting this growth.

Scientists confirm the universe is still expanding faster, refuting a recent challenge that questioned the existence of dark energy.

“We’re not claiming that it’s absolutely going to happen this decade. But there could be a 90% chance that it does." Reading time 2 minutes It’s been a fantastic week for Stephen Hawking’s black hole ...

A bold claim that the universe’s accelerating expansion was an illusion has been put to the test—and failed. Researchers ...

Physicists have long believed that black holes explode at the end of their lives, and that such explosions happen—at most—only once every 100,000 years. But new research published in Physical Review ...

Physicists may soon witness a cosmic fireworks show: the explosive death of a primordial black hole. Once thought to be unimaginably rare, new research suggests there’s up to a 90% chance of catching ...

Once charted as a 'guest star' in ancient China, dreaded as a harbinger of ill omens in medieval Europe, and preserved in the ...

Astronomers may have discovered one of the clearest examples yet of a rare "pair-instability" supernova. It is a catastrophic explosion thought to completely destroy some of the most massive stars in ...

Physicists think we could see such an explosion in the next 10 years - and it would 'revolutionize physics and rewrite the history of the universe'. This artist’s concept takes a fanciful approach to ...

This artist's concept takes a fanciful approach to imagining small primordial black holes. In reality, such tiny black holes would have a difficult time forming the accretion disks that make them ...
