According to the theory of cosmic inflation initially introduced by Alan Guth and D. Kazanas, [23] if it is assumed that inflation began about 10 −37 seconds after the Big Bang and that the pre-inflation size of the universe was approximately equal to the speed of light times its age, that would suggest that at present the entire universe's ...
Map is one of the most precise measurements of how ‘stuff’ is distributed through the cosmos
Hence, it is unclear whether the observable universe matches the entire universe or is significantly smaller, though it is generally accepted that the universe is larger than the observable universe. The universe may be compact in some dimensions and not in others, similar to how a cuboid [citation needed] is longer in one dimension than the ...
Since the Big Bang, the universe has expanded monotonically. Perhaps unsurprisingly, our universe has just the right mass–energy density, equivalent to about 5 protons per cubic meter, which has allowed it to expand for the last 13.8 billion years, giving time to form the universe as observed today.

By imaging 226 million galaxies, astronomers have created the largest map ever of dark matter, which makes up 25% of the universe. By imaging 226 million galaxies, astronomers have created the ...
The European Space Agency mission, launched in July 2023, will create the largest and most accurate 3D map of the cosmos yet to help answer enduring questions about the “dark side” of the ...
The size of the whole universe is unknown, and it might be infinite in extent. [19] According to the Big Bang theory, the very early universe was an extremely hot and dense state about 13.8 billion years ago [ 20 ] which rapidly expanded .
Scientists at the University of Hawaii’s Mānoa Institute for Astronomy (IfA) have used AI to produce the world’s largest 3D catalog of stars, galaxies, and quasars. “Utilizing a state-of ...
