Another example of something we can't fully explain is the observed acceleration of the expansion of the universe. Scientists have long known that the universe is expanding, but in the late 1990s, observations of distant supernovae revealed that the expansion of the universe is accelerating, rather than slowing down as expected. This phenomenon is thought to be driven by a mysterious force called dark energy, which is thought to make up about 68% of the total mass-energy of the universe. Despite years of research, scientists still don't know what dark energy is or how it works. Understanding the nature of dark energy could potentially revolutionize our understanding of the universe and our place in it. Subscribe for more mysteries of our universe!
