ORCs are vast, faint rings of radio energy that surround galaxies and can be detected only in radio wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum. They are made up of fast-moving, magnetized plasma.

Even before the first stars lit up the Universe, the Cosmos was not the cold place most researchers once imagined. New ...

The paper presents evidence that dark energy – a proposed form of energy that affects the universe – may not be a constant ...
