For science-fiction enthusiasts, that’s a bit depressing. Space is big, and while the speed of light is incredibly fast to us ...

In the grand puzzle of the cosmos, one question continues to defy easy answers: how fast is the universe expanding? Astronomers have tried two main methods to figure it out, but their numbers don’t ...

If ultimately true, the universe will reach its maximum size around 11 billion years from now. At that point, physics (and ...

Scientists have known for decades that the universe is expanding, but research in the past few years has shaken up calculations on the speed of growth -- raising tricky questions about theories of the ...

A new Utah Valley University study is providing new evidence in a debate astronomers across the world haven’t been able to agree on — how fast the universe is expanding. The findings may add more fuel ...
