Peter Lamont writes:I think the expansion happened only slowly at first, and has since accelerated. Now, what do you think of that?

Dark Energy writes:In the early 1990's, one thing was fairly certain about the expansion of the Universe. It might have enough energy density to stop its expansion and recollapse, it might have so little energy density that it would never stop expanding, but gravity was certain to slow the expansion as time went on. Granted, the slowing had not been observed, but, theoretically, the Universe had to slow. The Universe is full of matter and the attractive force of gravity pulls all matter together. Then came 1998 and the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of very distant supernovae that showed that, a long time ago, the Universe was actually expanding more slowly than it is today....More is unknown than is known. We know how much dark energy there is because we know how it affects the Universe's expansion. Other than that, it is a complete mystery. But it is an important mystery. It turns out that roughly 68% of the Universe is dark energy. Dark matter makes up about 27%. The rest - everything on Earth, everything ever observed with all of our instruments, all normal matter - adds up to less than 5% of the Universe.

Peter Lamont writes:What is Dark Energy except Anti-Gravity? They say Anti-Gravity doesn't exist in Wiki - pushing our Universe apart? What nonsence.

Peter Lamont writes:Please read my 'Observational Evidence' and let me know what you think of it.

Peter Lamont writes:They fabricated Dark Energy. It doesn't exist. If you're so sure it does, show me some.
