G299 Type Ia supernova remnant. Measurements from Type Ia supernovae, baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO), and the cosmic microwave background (CMB) hint that dark energy may evolve instead of staying fixed.
Fresh evidence suggests dark energy is not constant but slowly changing, hinting at new physics that could redefine how the universe expands.

Antarctica abrupt changes threaten ice, oceans, and ecosystems, with global impacts unless emissions fall fast.
Scientists warn of abrupt shifts across Antarctica’s fragile climateJoseph Shavit
This illustration offers a whimsical take on primordial black holes, though in reality such tiny objects are unlikely to develop the bright accretion disks shown here.
