+ | There isn’t enough evidence yet to declare a groundbreaking discovery that definitively says dark energy is evolving and weakening, but that could change within just a couple of years, Ishak-Boushak said. | ||

And what are the most likely physical explanations? |
- | That’s a big deal, explained Garret Reisman, a former NASA astronaut who now advises for SpaceX. | + | The new data release could also help astrophysicists better understand how galaxies and black holes evolve and the nature of dark matter. Although dark matter has never been detected, it is believed to make up 85% of the total matter in the universe. |
- | “They’re finicky little beasts — (the Starship rocket engines) — and it’s not so easy to light them up and shut them down and light them up again,” Reisman told CNN. | + | Scientists involved with the collaboration are eager to improve their measurements using DESI. |
- | Starship then aimed to test its limits as it headed toward splashdown in the Indian Ocean. | + | “Whatever the nature of dark energy is, it will shape the future of our universe, |
- | “We’re going to fly the ship at an aggressive angle of attack once it’s moving slower than the speed of sound,” SpaceX engineer Jessie Anderson said on the company’s livestream. “This means we’ll be flying nose down instead of our usual belly flop orientation during final descent. This will — no doubt — stress the limits of the flaps’ ability to maintain control, but it will be a chance to get real flight data on what our limits actually are.” | + | A new experiment called Spec-S5, or Stage 5 Spectroscopic Experiment, could measure |
