Scientists Build Atomic Clocks That Can Measure Changes in Spacetime

This is just the latest result from efforts around the world to create the best-ever atomic clock. Perhaps these clocks could detect dark matter from the way its gravity alters spacetime.

A swarm of robots assembled to detect effects of dark energy

The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument, or DESI, is being assembled for a five-year mission at the prime focus of the Mayall Telescope, to measure the spectra of more than 30 million galaxies and quasars.

Secrets Of The Dark Photon Might Be Unlocked In A New Experiment

The mysterious dark photon will be hunted by the Positron Annihilation into Dark Matter Experiment (PADME) in Italy, which will start collecting data in the next couple of weeks.

Dark Matter and Energy Are Real Reveals Final Data of Planck Mission

The Planck mission launched in 2009 has finally reached its ending point. So far the standard model of cosmology has survived all the tests.

Life May Be Billions of Times More Common in the Multiverse

While there is no physical evidence that parallel universes exist, the theories that explain how our universe came to be seem to suggest that they are inevitable.

Could dark matter atoms explain a recent observation?

A tiny fraction of dark matter could have a charge, allowing it to interact with regular matter during the time between the Big Bang and formation of the Cosmic Microwave Background, some physicists say.

Hubble finds first galaxy in the local universe without dark matter

An international team of researchers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and several other observatories have, for the first time, uncovered a galaxy that is missing dark matter.

Simple telescope picks up hint of the Universe’s first stars, dark matter

A small team of researchers announced that its correspondingly small telescope picked up a signal produced by the very first stars in our Universe.

Hubble data indicate universe growing faster than expected

Lengthy observations by the Hubble Space Telescope indicate the universe is expanding faster than predicted by standard models and that Einstein’s cosmological constant, thought by many to define dark energy, may not be so constant after all.

Astrophysicists have built the most detailed simulation of the Universe ever

The simulation consists of 18 simulations covering various scales - each a cubic mock-up of space up to 1 billion light years wide - tracing the evolution of the Universe from just after the Big Bang into the future.

Dark Energy Survey Releases First Three Years of Data

Results from the first data release of the Dark Energy Survey include eleven new stellar streams in the Milky Way galaxy.

China Plans to Build the World's Largest Steerable Radio Telescope

The Xinjiang Qitai 110-meter Radio Telescope ( QTT ) could help advance research on dark matter, gravitational waves, and extraterrestrial intelligence.

The Multiverse?

Merging Neutron Stars Challenge Existing Theories of Gravity and Dark Energy.

China’s Dark Matter Satellite Has Produced Some Unusual Results

The experiment has directly detected a sudden drop-off in the electrons hitting the satellite.

Mysterious dark energy is more dynamic than we thought, says new study

New research is adding some deeper insight into the mysterious repulsive force known as dark energy, providing evidence that whatever it might be, its ghostly influence hasn't been constant over time.
