Is the Universe's Expansion Slowing Down?

Tycho supernova remnant NASA/CXC/RIKEN & GSFC/T. Sato et al. DSS Many believe that our universe is expanding at an accelerating rate. However, a team of South Korean researchers has posited a different perspective, leading other scientists to raise significant concerns about their claims. Since the Big Bang 13.8 billion years ago, the universe has been [...] The post Is the Universe’s Expansion Slowing Down? appeared first on Mondo News.

New Findings Reveal Universe's Expansion Is Slowing Down, Contrary to

The universe’s expansion, once believed to be accelerating due to a force dubbed dark energy, may actually be slowing down, according to recent research published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. This potentially groundbreaking discovery challenges the classical concept of an ever-expanding cosmos and suggests that our understanding of dark energy may require a significant reevaluation. The implications of this study cou…

Universe’s expansion is slowing down, not speeding up

Researchers used type Ia supernovas, similar to SN1994d pictured above in its host galaxy NGC4526, to help establish that the universe’s expansion may actually have started to slow. For decades, scientists have believed the universe’s expansion was accelerating. The new research upends that paradigm. Image via NASA/ ESA/ RAS. The universe’s expansion has already begun to slow, says a new study from Yonsei University. This challenges the long-he…
