200,000 ancient Milky Way stars reveal the Universe may be 13.6 billion years old
By focusing on the ages of the oldest stars in the Milky Way, researchers utilized precise stellar data to provide a robust lower limit on the age of the Universe, highlighting the potential for future data releases from the Gaia mission to further refine measurements.

How fast is the universe actually expanding? Ripples in spacetime could finally solve 'Hubble tension'
By analyzing the gravitational wave background from distant black hole collisions, researchers hope to develop a method that can independently measure the Hubble constant and potentially end the longstanding Hubble tension.

Our Entire Galaxy Appears to Be Embedded in a Colossal Sheet of Dark Matter
This flat geometry of dark matter provides a tidy explanation for the motion of nearby galaxies, as the mass at the distant edges of the sheet pulls everything within it slightly outward, while beyond the plane's boundaries lies a void where no galaxies reside.

WASHINGTON, Jan 26 (Reuters) - Using observations from the James Webb Space Telescope in a patch of the sky covering almost three times the area of the full moon, scientists have created the most detailed cosmic map to date of the mysterious substance called dark matter that accounts for most of the stuff that populates the universe.
