Why has the mystery about dark energy increased?
For a long time, scientists thought that the universe would expand at an accelerated rate forever due to the influence of dark energy. But recent South Korean research and new observations of dark energy say otherwise. According to the new data, dark energy can change over time and if its strength weakens, the expansion of the universe may one day stop. Then, due to the influence of gravity, the galaxies will come closer again and the universe may contract and go towards destruction, which is called the 'Big Crunch'. Although there is disagreement among scientists about this idea, researchers say that if this result is true, it will bring a big change to our idea of the future of the universe.
