@@ytb40dark energy is the placeholder name we have for what’s causing the accelerated expansion of the universe. The simplest explanation is it’s a constant energy density corresponding to the vacuum of empty space. This is quite an ordinary concept in quantum physics - the zero point energy. The details elude us; that doesn’t mean it “doesn’t exist.” How about this - let scientists who have been studying this phenomenon since 1998 keep studying it, and maybe one day we can figure out those missing details?

The study of dark energy is crucial for understanding the accelerated expansion of the universe. As we develop more advanced observational tools and methodologies, our ability to survey and map dark energy improves significantly. This could offer profound insights into the fundamental forces shaping the cosmos. Given the challenges and complexities involved in observing and analyzing dark energy, what are the latest advancements in technology or methods that are enhancing our ability to survey it? How might these improvements impact our understanding of the universe's expansion and the nature of dark energy itself?

It took me a decade to understand why we can use stars as standardized candles. It wasn’t in the text books or in videos I watched. It wasn’t explained here either unfortunately. Candles aren’t a good explanation, I wondered why a dimmer star wasn’t just one that was smaller, not necessarily further away.

@saltynutzz 2 ай бұрын

Because when you actually get into wavelengths of light you can tell by how red-shifted it is, and than tell how far away it is so you know if it's a smaller dinner star closer or a bigger star that's far away. There's also the Doppler effect of the light as well which tells you which direction the star is spinning.

For those too lazy to watch: The survey clearly indicates that dark energy is somewhat disappointed by our understanding of it. There's some resentment about being called "something" or "unexplainable " and the respondent insisted they were more than "just a mistake by a guy named Einstein". All in all dark energy feels misunderstood, misrepresented and therefore underappreciated. We need to do better people!

There is only one reason to postulate dark energy, to explain the exponential expansion rate of the universe. The expansion was discovered in 1929. In 1998 it was discovered that the expansion is accelerating, this is when the concept of dark energy became mainstream. If something accelerates at a constant rate it will get faster and faster. If a spaceship travels at a constant 1g acceleration rate it would achieve about 95% light speed in 1 year. Electricity is drawn towards potential and the universe as a whole behaves the same way. Electricity comes into our homes because the neutral circuit provides the potential. Physicists in the last century did not postulate dark energy because they understood that the expansion is a fundamental property of the universe. The fact that the expansion is accelerating does not invalidate their reasoning, it's what the known laws of physics would predict provided gravitational forces are not strong enough to counteract the process. All studies to find dark energy have been fruitless because it doesn't exist. To say there is dark energy is to say there is 5 fundamental forces, there is 4

@@Joe_Mama869 The universe is expanding towards potential, there is no reason to postulate a quantum field to explain this. Einstein, Planck, Heisenberg, Schrodinger, Dirac, Pauli, Feynman and almost every other physicist in the last century did not postulate dark energy for this reason.

I'm going with centrifugal force of magnetism bonding and repulsion within occupational space as mass. Magnets show the bonding force of centrifugal force spinning all external heat energy currents grounding back onto itself cycling circulation through its nucleus or core like earth's quantumized internal magnetic fields of elementary accumulation of mass as heat grounding currents into itself as mass. Mass neutralizes cold repulsion of occupational space within mass as outward force of pressure known as impaction when resistance can't be overcome. The greater the mass, the greater the force of pressure and repulsion to it. Greater mass has farther reaching magnetic fields grounding currents through all masses in its path. So mass falls in equalization to magnetism repulsion. Magnetic fields of heavier objects are further outward repulsion than lighter elements. Do the math. Centrifugal force of external magnetic fields spinning all external heat energy outside of the nucleus or core like a record on a record player centrifugal force flowing around these massive external magnetic fields. Distance traveling is always equal to the force of pressure. Magnetism explains everything about physics without gravity and bending space and electricity. Heat grounding currents through all masses in its path until resistance can't be overcome and impaction force is current grounding. You walk in a stream and feel the force of currents flowing. You step into a fast-moving river, and you are pulled away into the flow. Heat grounding currents through centrifugal forces of magnetism flowing currents works the same. External heat energy outside of entanglement of mass doesn't ground energy. Fire is an external magnetic field. The closer to the core, the minimum distance and force increase. Walk away from the core distance, traveling increases, and force decreases as magnetism. Appliances catch fire. Lightning is rapid heat loss instantaneously fire lighting up the atmosphere like filaments. Campfires are slowly disolving internal magnetic fields of internal magnetic fields of mass as potential renewable heat energy when absorbed into internal magnetic fields grounding currents through its nucleus or core. Mass is quantumized internal magnetic fields of centrifugal force. Heat and cold space coexist as anti-matter as cold repulsion to heat energy singularities propulsion momentum from cold repulsion perpetual motion momentum as maximum distance traveling and minimum force of pressure to and from as space is a weak external magnetic field. Hydrogen is the cosmic speed limit in cold repulsion of normal momentum of space itself. Space is filled with dark heat energy, with the exception of external magnetic fields spinning outside of monopoles of pure fabric of cold space with absolute zero heat energy within its core or nucleus as external magnetic fields spinning centrifugal forces flowing around these massive external magnetic fields spinning all external heat energy within its field in equalization to magnetism. Neutralized occupational space of repulsion allows faster heat energy propulsion centrifugal force cycling circulation faster than normal momentum of space. The immediate accretion disk surrounding the event horizon perimeter spinning heat faster than normal momentum of space in neutralized repulsion of space as occupational heat cycling circulation around these monopoles of pure repulsion to heat propulsion faster velocity. Hydrogen is the most abundant element because it exceeds the normal momentum of space itself. When heat hits cold repulsion of normal cold repulsion redirecting heat energy trajectories backwards onto itself as centrifugal force as hydrogen as internal magnetic fields grounding currents through its nucleus or core where external heat energy force is strongest.

If you’re only at the hypothesis step of the scientific method, you’ve yet to prove your own hypothesis. Claiming that any other hypothesis, theory or law is incorrect when your hypothesis still remains unproven and untested (or at the very least, unreported) is showing ignorance of how science and peer review works.
