Rumors of a Strange Universe
Recent observations of distant supernovae suggest that most of the universe's energy is tied to space itself, not to stars or galaxies. This implies a large cosmological constant, a concept that has existed since modern relativistic cosmology. While not always popular with astronomers, this idea helps explain the accelerating expansion of the universe.
