For more than a century, physicists have suspected that the familiar three dimensions of space and one of time might be only a sliver of reality. Extra dimensions, if they exist, would not just be a ...

The universe's expansion means its size is bigger than its age suggests. The universe's expansion doesn't have a speed limit like objects within it. Distant galaxies move away from us as space itself ...

In an unprecedented step, researchers crafted a detailed model compatible with the universe’s accelerated expansion.
