Dark energy and dark matter account for most of the universe, but what are these elusive phenomena? NASA/JPL/Hubble NASA's Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) provided a true watershed moment in humanity's quest to understand the cosmos when it calculated the age of the universe ...
The universe is predominantly composed of dark energy and dark matter. Visible matter (everything we can see, including stars and planets) only makes up around 5% of the universe. Scientists are investigating the nature of the unknown 95%. Credit: Argonne National Laboratory These sensitive instru...

dark energynon-existenceSince the concept of dark matter and dark energy was proposed, it is still unclear what its essence is. This paper will discuss the nature of dark matter and dark energy based on the dualism and its derivative theories or viewpoints. In the process of photon ...
It’s even been suggested by some scientists that quintessence could be some combination of dark energy and dark matter, though the two are currently considered completely separate from one another. While the two are both major mysteries to scientists, dark matter is thought to make up about 85...
Even so, dark matter doesn’t disrupt the particles we do see and “feel,” meaning it must have other special properties as well. Related Stories Dark Matter Could Unlock a Limitless Energy Source What Is Dark Energy? “[T]here are still some questions which do not have an answer with...
Dark matter yields dark energy. It is a necessary component in the overall scheme of things. Dark energy is no more intrinsic to space than dark matter. And, it is not mysterious; it is integral to the normal process of the universe (the overriding theory). The process, when you understa...
Unknown physics may help dark energy act as 'antigravity' throughout the universe What is dark matter? Dark matter is an invisible, mysterious substance that makes up more than 80% of the matter in the universe — but scientists aren't sure what it is. ...
Dark matter and dark energy are mysterious components that make up a significant portion of the universe's total mass and energy. 7 Space Space exploration has captivated the human imagination, symbolizing the quest for knowledge and the exploration of the unknown. The moon landing in 1969 stands...
