But there are several important anomalies, including a widely debated one called the Hubble tension. It is named after Edwin ...

Scientists used Cosmic Microwave Background data to challenge our understanding of the universe's shape. Here's what they ...

Astronomers have heard the faint hum of gravitational waves echoing throughout the universe for the first time. For nearly a decade, scientists have been hunting for the gravitational wave background, ...

Astronomers have finally confirmed a long‑suspected cosmic oddity, a massive clump of gas and dark matter that looks like a ...

Astronomers are trying to listen to the universe's background hum — a cascade of gravitational waves believed to exist since the first rapid inflation of space following the Big Bang over 13.8 billion ...

The latest wave of cosmology results suggests the universe might not be the smooth, predictable machine textbooks once ...

Scientists may have identified the gravitational waves that make up some of the universe’s background, not just those coming from unusual events like black hole collisions. New Atlas reports that the ...

New research suggests the universe may be lopsided. Cosmic microwave background and galaxy data hint at directional differences, challenging cosmology’s assumption of uniformity and standard ...

The cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation originated about 300,000 years after the Big Bang. The CMB's light, initially near-infrared, is now microwave radiation due to the universe's expansion.
