⭐ What is Dark Energy ?

$\huge{\orange{\boxed{\fcolorbox{lime}{cadetblue}{\pink{ANSWER}}}}}$

☕ Dark energy is the name given to the mysterious force that's causing the rate of expansion of our universe to accelerate over time, rather than to slow down. That's contrary to what one might expect from a universe that began in a Big Bang. Astronomers in the 20th century learned the universe is expanding .

☕ By fitting a theoretical model of the composition of the universe to the combined set of cosmological observations, scientists have come up with the composition that we described above, ~68% dark energy, ~27% dark matter, ~5% normal matter .

Answer 2

Answer:

While dark energy is a force that accounts for the expanding universe, dark matter explains how groups of objects function together. In the 1950s, scientists studying other galaxies expected gravity to cause the centers to rotate faster than the outer edges, based on the distribution of the objects inside of them.
