The new findings come from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), which sits on a telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory in Arizona.
Not everything we knew about the universe is wrong. But not not everything. The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) ...
Gravity pulls us to earth, a lesson you learn viscerally the first time you fall. Isaac Newton described gravity as a ...
Astronomers thought dark energy was a constant. But now, findings from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument provide even more evidence that it may be fluctuating ...
Physicists have proposed a new model of space-time that may provide the 'first observational evidence supporting string ...
DESI’s findings also bolster another big theory among some astronomers – that the universe is going to end with a “big crunch.” While dark energy is weakening, according to Ishak ...
When taken in isolation, the DESI findings don't actually challenge the picture of dark energy developed in the LCDM model. It is when the DESI data is compared with other measurements of the ...
A few days ago, a new press release announced groundbreaking findings from the Dark Energy Spectroscopy Instrument (DESI), which is installed on the Mayall Telescope in Arizona. This vast survey, ...
Last April a survey by the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) published hints that dark energy may not be as constant as they’d assumed, adding to a pile of concerns that are already ...
First discovered in the 1990s, dark energy has come to feel like a familiar face of the cosmos. Astronomers first imagined ...
A new study using the Dark Energy Survey (DES) final datasets suggests potential inconsistencies in the standard cosmological model, known as ΛCDM. If confirmed, these findings could ...
Leading this quest is the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), a global collaboration involving over 70 institutions.
