Survey shows division: The largest-ever poll of physicists found scant agreement on core theories, including the Standard Model of cosmology. Collider hints anomaly: Rare B meson decays at CERN's LHC ...

New cosmology studies suggest the universe may not be perfectly uniform, potentially challenging long-standing assumptions ...

Cyclic cosmology, or the big bounce, is the idea that the universe will eventually crunch back together and then go through another big bang. Columnist Leah Crane finds that, appropriately, it’s comin ...

The conclusion of DESI's first survey marks an important milestone for cosmology, which finds itself in a bind for the best reasons.

"The Story of Everything" documentary argues scientific discoveries about the universe, DNA and fine-tuning point to the existence of a creator God.

For a quarter century, cosmology has rested on a simple but audacious idea: that a fixed “cosmological constant” drives the universe’s accelerating expansion. Now a new wave of data is forcing ...

This sketch is of the cosmic microwave background timeline of the universe in the Lambda Cold Dark Matter model. The accelerated expansion shown in the last third of the timeline represents the dark ...

By studying galaxy clusters separated by hundreds of millions of light-years, Penn physicist Patricio Gallardo and collaborators show that the laws of gravity described by Newton and Einstein still ...

Recent surveys hint that the rate of cosmic expansion changes dramatically over time; if that's true, then the universe could ...

A squad of new AI algorithms called GAME could help astrophysicists take a more accurate reading of the universe’s behavior, ...

A few years ago, the internet caught alight with talk of a “vibe shift” in what counts as cool. Skinny jeans and minimalism were out; baggy trousers and messy hair were in. Cue a minor panic for ...

Sci-fi loves a multiverse. Everyone from Rick and Morty to Spider-Man has stepped through a portal and met their alter egos. My personal favorite use of this trope comes from the sitcom Community, ...
