    Was 2024 the year we finally started to understand dark energy?

    Well... Maybe. The Timescape paper is certainly the largest advancement in "dark energy" research we've had since the whole idea was introduced. And for those that are living in the dark, the Timescape paper, simplified, says that the calculations that led people to dark energy were made in...

    Quantum gravity' could help unite quantum mechanics with general relativity at last

    Pathetic. Congratulations to the scientists who have managed to measure the effects of gravity at the smallest scale yet. Boo to the people bringing up the idiocy of quantum gravity. And boo to the writers of this article for continuing to perpetuate the myth that gravity is a force. Gravity...

    Dark matter could be gently wobbling space-time around us — and scientists may finally know how to detect it

    The place to look for particulate dark matter (PDM) is around a black hole. Supposedly PDM is distributed roughly evenly throughout the volume of the halo (despite PDM having no observable effect within a galaxy). Given that, PDM should be falling into black holes like baryonic matter, Therefore...
