A new three-volume study explores how quantum physics, gravitation and cosmology may be understood within a unified ...

A new study has estimated the universe’s possible age by using precise data on stars.

A unique technique allowed astronomers to see the early universe as a "sea of light" and explore the effects of gravity and ...

Astronomers have long known the universe is expanding—but exactly how fast remains one of the biggest mysteries in cosmology. Different techniques for measuring the Hubble constant stubbornly disagree ...

Did light shine in the universe’s earliest moments, or was it hidden from view? While this question may seem simple at first, arecent article by Live Sciencereveals that the reality is far more ...

Findings from a new study into the cosmic "afterglow" may rewrite the history of the universe, according to researchers. This afterglow—the "cosmic microwave background" (CMB), the relic radiation ...

Last year, our most detailed map of the universe yet suggested our understanding of dark energy has been wrong for decades. The shock result is reigniting the search for a better cosmic story ...

The plot represents the new model with the x-axis and the y-axis showing the minimum sizes of collapsing and expanding regions that can impact cosmological measurements. The contours are independent ...

The Big Bang is often described as the explosive birth of the universe – a singular moment when space, time and matter sprang into existence. But what if this was not the beginning at all? What if our ...

Just as ocean waves shape our shores, ripples in space-time may have once set the Universe on an evolutionary path that led to the cosmos as we see it today. A new theory suggests gravitational waves ...

New observations from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) suggest the cosmos may be much older than once believed. For decades, scientists have held that the universe is about 13.8 billion years old ...

"Birth of the Universe" at Manfred Olson Planetarium will explore clues that astronomers have used to understand the evolution of the universe. Scientists trace the origins of the cosmos to the Big ...
