Ken, when are you going to successfully predict Mercury's perihelion
advance?

May 19, 2011

PASADENA, Calif. -- A five-year survey of 200,000 galaxies, stretching
back seven billion years in cosmic time, has led to one of the best
independent confirmations that dark energy is driving our universe apart
at accelerating speeds. The survey used data from NASA's space-based
Galaxy Evolution Explorer and the Anglo-Australian Telescope on Siding
Spring Mountain in Australia.

The findings offer new support for the favored theory of how dark energy
works -- as a constant force, uniformly affecting the universe and
propelling its runaway expansion. They contradict an alternate theory,
where gravity, not dark energy, is the force pushing space apart.
According to this alternate theory, with which the new survey results
are not consistent, Albert Einstein's concept of gravity is wrong, and
gravity becomes repulsive instead of attractive when acting at great
distances.

"The action of dark energy is as if you threw a ball up in the air, and
it kept speeding upward into the sky faster and faster," said Chris
Blake of the Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne, Australia.
Blake is lead author of two papers describing the results that appeared
in recent issues of the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical
Society. "The results tell us that dark energy is a cosmological
constant, as Einstein proposed. If gravity were the culprit, then we
wouldn't be seeing these constant effects of dark energy throughout time."

Dark energy is thought to dominate our universe, making up about 74
percent of it. Dark matter, a slightly less mysterious substance,
accounts for 22 percent. So-called normal matter, anything with atoms,
or the stuff that makes up living creatures, planets and stars, is only
approximately four percent of the cosmos.

The idea of dark energy was proposed during the previous decade, based
on studies of distant exploding stars called supernovae. Supernovae emit
constant, measurable light, making them so-called "standard candles,"
which allows calculation of their distance from Earth. Observations
revealed dark energy was flinging the objects out at accelerating speeds.

Dark energy is in a tug-of-war contest with gravity. In the early
universe, gravity took the lead, dominating dark energy. At about 8
billion years after the Big Bang, as space expanded and matter became
diluted, gravitational attractions weakened and dark energy gained the
upper hand. Billions of years from now, dark energy will be even more
dominant. Astronomers predict our universe will be a cosmic wasteland,
with galaxies spread apart so far that any intelligent beings living
inside them wouldn't be able to see other galaxies.

The new survey provides two separate methods for independently checking
the supernovae results. This is the first time astronomers performed
these checks across the whole cosmic timespan dominated by dark energy.
The team began by assembling the largest three-dimensional map of
galaxies in the distant universe, spotted by the Galaxy Evolution
Explorer. The ultraviolet-sensing telescope has scanned about
three-quarters of the sky, observing hundreds of millions of galaxies.

"The Galaxy Evolution Explorer helped identify bright, young galaxies,
which are ideal for this type of study," said Christopher Martin,
principal investigator for the mission at the California Institute of
Technology in Pasadena. "It provided the scaffolding for this enormous
3-D map."

The astronomers acquired detailed information about the light for each
galaxy using the Anglo-Australian Telescope and studied the pattern of
distance between them. Sound waves from the very early universe left
imprints in the patterns of galaxies, causing pairs of galaxies to be
separated by approximately 500 million light-years.

This "standard ruler" was used to determine the distance from the galaxy
pairs to Earth -- the closer a galaxy pair is to us, the farther apart
the galaxies will appear from each other on the sky. As with the
supernovae studies, this distance data were combined with information
about the speeds at which the pairs are moving away from us, revealing,
yet again, the fabric of space is stretching apart faster and faster.

The team also used the galaxy map to study how clusters of galaxies grow
over time like cities, eventually containing many thousands of galaxies.
The clusters attract new galaxies through gravity, but dark energy tugs
the clusters apart. It slows down the process, allowing scientists to
measure dark energy's repulsive force.

"Observations by astronomers over the last 15 years have produced one of
the most startling discoveries in physical science; the expansion of the
universe, triggered by the Big Bang, is speeding up," said Jon Morse,
astrophysics division director at NASA Headquarters in Washington.
"Using entirely independent methods, data from the Galaxy Evolution
Explorer have helped increase our confidence in the existence of dark
energy."

Caltech leads the Galaxy Evolution Explorer mission and is responsible
for science operations and data analysis. NASA's Jet Propulsion
Laboratory in Pasadena, manages the mission and built the science
instrument. The mission was developed under NASA's Explorers Program
managed by the Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md. Researchers
sponsored by Yonsei University in South Korea and the Centre National
d'Etudes Spatiales (CNES) in France collaborated on this mission.
Caltech manages JPL for NASA.

No it says the opposite,
