Dark matter and dark energy, do they really exist?

in #space7 years ago

While recently posting a thought provoking image which demonstrates the predominantly dark matter surrounding our comos https://steemit.com/science/@originate/incredible-image-of-the-big-bang-s-afterglow-wins-breakthrough-prize, new research is also being hypothesized on exactly what this could potential be.

Researchers have hypothesized for nearly a century that our universe contains more matter than can be directly observed. This is know as "dark matter" and along the existence of a "dark energy" that is more powerful than gravitational attraction.

A new theoretical model is based on a scale invariance of "empty space", and it brings another hypotheses on two of astronomy's greatest mysteries. This hypothesis conception is from André Maeder, honorary professor in the Department of Astronomy in UNIGE's Faculty of Science.

The empty space model plays a primordial role in Einstein's equations as it operates in a quantity known as a "cosmological constant," and the resulting universe model depends on it.

Based on this hypothesis, Maeder is now pursuing the model of the universe, pointing out that the scale invariance of the empty space is also present in the fundamental theory of electromagnetism.
