The cosmological constant is the mathematical description of the energy that drives the ever-accelerating expansion of the cosmos. It's also the source of one of the most enduring and confounding ...

You see the same Einstein story almost every week about his biggest blunder: how his static universe failed. He wanted a static universe, added something to his equations to hold it still called the c ...

WESTPORT, Conn., June 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A new theoretical framework known as The Substrate Theory of Everything has been made publicly available, offering researchers and the broader ...

Physicists sometimes come up with crazy stories that sound like science fiction. Some turn out to be true, like how the curvature of space and time described by Einstein was eventually borne out by ...

The cosmological constant, which explains how and why the universe is expanding, has been previously described by astrophysicists as “the worst prediction in the history of physics” due to its ...

We know that the universe is getting bigger. And we know that the speed that the universe is getting bigger is also getting bigger. The standard assumption is that the acceleration rate is itself ...

""For nearly a century, physicists have been searching for a way to reconcile gravity with quantum mechanics. The Substrate Theory offers a principled approach that derives both from the same ...

Last time I wrote about new data that overturns the standard cosmological model. Before anyone starts dusting off their fringe cosmological models, we should note what this new study doesn't overturn.
