Dark comets are comets that are so small, fast and/or chemically rare that they are difficult to see from Earth
Dark matter's mass limit increased by an order of magnitude, impacting our understanding of the universe's invisible substance.
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope team at NASA has completed the integration of the telescope and its instruments onto the carrier, a significant milestone in the assembly process. With the Coronagraph Instrument and the Optical Telescope Assembly in place,
For decades, dark energy has dominated cosmology, thought to account for nearly 70% of the universe’s energy density and driving the accelerated expansion observed in the cosmos. However, groundbreaking research led by Professor David Wiltshire from the University of Canterbury in New Zealand challenges this theory.
The cosmos began expanding with the Big Bang but then around 10 billion years later it strangely began to accelerate thanks to a theoretical phenomenon termed dark energy. Credit: NASA One of science’s biggest mysteries is dark energy.
NASA's Scientific Balloon Program has returned to Antarctica's icy expanse to kick off the annual Antarctic Long-Duration Balloon Campaign, where two balloon flights will carry a total of nine missions to near space.
NASA astronauts Sunita "Suni" Williams and Barry "Butch" Willmore were expected to return home in February after their extended stay at the ISS, but NASA confirmed the two will be in space longer.
NASA will resume its annual long-duration balloon operation in Antarctica by launching two flights in mid-December for planned nine missions to near space.
Scientists believe NASA's James Webb telescope could allow the space agency to perceive dark matter for the first time to uncover the secrets of the universe that has evaded the hu
More than a decade ago, dark matter experts Daniel Akerib and Thomas Shutt joined the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, continuing their mission to uncover the elusive substance.
New measurements from the James Webb Space Telescope suggest that a discrepancy in the observed expansion rate of the universe could be down to the influence of dark energy
