Dark energy 'doesn't exist' so can't be pushing 'lumpy' Universe apart
Friday, 20 December 2024 () One of the biggest mysteries in science -- dark energy -- doesn't actually exist, according to researchers looking to solve the riddle of how the Universe is expanding. For the past 100 years, physicists have generally assumed that the cosmos is growing equally in all directions. They employed the concept of dark energy as a placeholder to explain unknown physics they couldn't understand, but the contentious theory has always had its problems. Now a team of physicists and astronomers are challenging the status quo, using improved analysis of supernovae light curves to show that the Universe is expanding in a more varied, 'lumpier' way.
We discuss Dark energy and if cold, negative, or aether energy are the same thing. Join us for our Monday Night Fringe Think Tank. Nathan and I host a new guest every week to discuss, plan, learn and..
