The Universe is big, as Douglas Adams would say. The most distant light we can see is the cosmic microwave background (CMB), which has taken more than 13 billion years to reach us. This marks the edge ...

The large-scale structure of the universe—the gigantic, hierarchical cosmic web of structures bound by gravity—is mostly made up of dark matter. The growth of the large-scale structure, from ...

A group of researchers at the University of Waterloo and the University of British Columbia have discovered a potential "cosmic glitch" in the universe's gravity, explaining its strange behavior on a ...

Researchers have discovered a potential 'cosmic glitch' in the universe's gravity, explaining its strange behavior on a cosmic scale. A group of researchers at the University of Waterloo and the ...

・Einstein’s theory of gravity may behave slightly differently across distances of billions of light-years, with gravity appearing about 1 percent weaker on cosmic scales. ・The proposed “cosmic glitch” ...

Cosmic inflation posits a brief epoch of accelerated expansion in the early Universe, resolving the horizon and flatness puzzles while laying down the primordial density fluctuations that seed cosmic ...

In 1965, British mathematician Roger Penrose proposed the cosmic censorship conjecture, a concept that suggests that singularities — regions where gravity is so strong that the fabric of spacetime ...
