Since 1998, the accelerating expansion of the universe has stood as one of science's most consequential discoveries — a finding that reshaped humanity's understanding of its own cosmic home. When a South Korean team last year suggested that acceleration had reversed, the field held its breath. This week, an international consortium including Nobel laureates answered: the methodology was flawed, the corrections were missing, and the universe is still racing outward, driven by a dark energy whose existence is confirmed even as its nature remains one of the deepest unsolved questions in all of sc
