In 1998 a force called Dark Energy was discovered when the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) found that, a long time ago, the Universe was actually expanding more slowly than it is today. In other words its expansion has not been slowing due to gravity, as everyone thought, it has been accelerating. Since then several different … Read more
Is it possible to understand what came before the beginning of our present universe by projecting how matter energy space and time interact in our current universe to a time before it began? We think so. The Big Bang theory postulates the universe emerged from a singularity and is presently expanding from the tremendously hot … Read more
In 1998 the Hubble Space Telescope when observing distant supernovae discovered that the Universe was expanding more slowly in the past than it is today. In other words the Universe has not been slowing due to gravity, as everyone thought, it has been accelerating. No one expected this, no one knew how to explain it. … Read more
What is the fabric of the cosmos? Einstein told us that it is made up of a dynamic balance between the properties of space and time. For example he told us that space is a sort of multidimensional fabric, where the presence of mass causes the fabric of space-time to curve. However he did not … Read more
Scientists have determined that roughly 70% of the Universe is dark energy while Dark matter makes up about 25%. The normal matter or everything ever observed with all of our instruments adds up to less than 5% of the Universe. The evidence for the existence of Dark matter comes from the detained analysis of the … Read more
