The cracks in cosmology were supposed to take a while to appear. But when the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) opened its lens last spring, extremely distant yet very bright galaxies immediately ...

Our understanding of the true nature of the cosmos relies on measurements of its expansion, but cosmologists have been ...

While headlines around the world claimed that ancient galaxies discovered by the James Webb Space Telescope were "breaking" our understanding of the Big Bang, the truth is much more nuanced — and much ...

Final data from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope has ruled out 30 models of the universe, sharpening the Hubble tension and suggesting current cosmological theories remain incomplete.

About a year after launching into orbit around the Sun, the James Webb Space Telescope began imaging an abundance of little red dots, which scientists called, um, “little red dots.” I know—not only is ...

Discoveries on the grandest scale in the cosmos, as well as findings a bit closer to home, share this year’s Nobel Prize in Physics. Cosmologist James Peebles of Princeton University won half the ...

In collaboration with a private foundation, Herder & Herder Publishers is launching a landmark initiative for the development of a Christian cosmology based on reality as process, to replace the ...
