Scientists are using cosmic distortions in light to test a bold idea: that the Universe might not be as symmetrical as we’ve ...

By mapping the brightest explosions in the universe, scientists may have uncovered a megastructure that defies our understanding of how the cosmos is built.

Astronomers have spotted something that appears to stretch around ten billion light years across. This so-called ...

Astronomers have recently discovered that the Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall, a massive cosmic superstructure, might be ...

A re-examination of the distribution of powerful space explosions suggests that the Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall, a ...

Finding evidence of anomalies in the Cosmological Principle could have profound implications for our current understanding of the universe. "The Cosmological Principle is like an ultimate kind of ...

(University of Central Lancashire) Which leaves the very unanswered question: What the heck is it? And what does it mean for the Cosmological Principle, which states that, in all directions, any given ...

So if we drop the cosmological principle we might possibly get rid of dark energy, too. Astronomers hope soon to know more. The Dark Energy Survey is one project located at the Cerro Tololo Inter ...

This discovery challenges the cosmological principle, which states the Universe should be homogeneous and isotropic on large scales. The team used a catalog of 542 gamma-ray bursts, primarily observed ...
