Dark Universe

Europe's Euclid telescope is heading to space to prove whether hypothetical dark energy and dark matter really exist. The mission's findings may rewrite cosmology textbooks.

Euclid will launch on July 1 to hunt for dark matter and dark energy, in a quest to understand the nature of our universe's history and future.

The European Space Agency’s (ESA) Euclid satellite completed the first part of its long journey into space on May 1, 2023, when it arrived in Florida on a boat from Italy.

Clusters of galaxies hold the prestigious title of "largest gravitationally bound structures in the universe," which is no small feat.

The XENON1T detector hasn't detected any dark matter particles yet. But it has carried out a 30-day science run, and project scientists are optimistic about the future.

Despite how far science has come, so many questions remained unanswered.

But scientists still don't know what the mysterious stuff is.
