    In short, the fabric of the Universe is of two general components. 1) Matter, a gravitationally attractive medium, and 2) Space, a repelling and inflationary non-baryonic medium. The two are conterminous everywhere in the Universe., and give it its unique properties and structures.

      Way more of the universe’ mass is now contained within black holes than in the early universe. If matter ‘supports’ space time and black holes consume it then perhaps dark energy is the result of less free mass and the flow of space time into black holes.

      You might want to skim the Wikipedia article on Dark Energy. It discusses the (non-imagined) evidence, as well as alternative explanations.
      Other, more recent kinds of evidence are also consistent with the theory of dark energy.
      Implicit in your reply is your acknowledgment that this kind of "imagination" isn't fantasy. Theorizing consistent with evidence is an essential step in the scientific process, and it can't be skipped. It's part of how progress toward understanding is made. Subsequent steps are deducing consequences (predictions) assuming the theory is correct, attempting to disprove it by finding an inconsistency with other evidence, and attempting to disprove it experimentally by showing a prediction is wrong.

    • @dimitriosfotopoulos3689
      @dimitriosfotopoulos3689 Месяц назад

      Agreed. No one knows what dark matter is or if even exists. Someone came up with what seems like a darn good theory, and when another person realized the observations didn't match the theory, they came up with a complicated fudge factor or kludge to explain the deviation. Occam's Razor suggests that it is more likely that either someone made a math error, missed something, or that the theory isn't fully baked yet, but instead of going back to the drawing board, they came up with a fugazi to salvage the theory.

      @karatwilight Месяц назад +14

      It's been called dark energy precisely because we *don't* know exactly what it is. The measured increasing expansion rate of the universe implies an actively energetic source according to the laws of thermodynamics, hence "dark energy" because there's energy that is as yet unknown to current physics which is a very exciting mystery to be solved. If the expansion rate were consistent (or even slowing) then that would be sufficient cause to believe that it was remnants of that rapid inflationary period, but the fact that it's *increasing* means there must be additional energy to identify that is currently beyond our ability to directly observe. People can be aware of a force without being able to explain the fundamental cause of it (such as gravity). We know gravity exists and can predict behaviors in incredible detail but physics has yet to identify specific particles/waves that *cause* gravity. Similarly, dark energy has observable effects (expansion and rate of increase) but the fundamental particles responsible are not yet known. So it's "dark" until it has had some light shed upon it.

      Most of the volume of the Milky Way and Andromeda is empty interstellar space, so there will be very few collisions.

      @chuckcoleman6502 Месяц назад +3

      It depends on the scale. Dark energy, as far as we know, has a constant density. If two galaxies are close enough, they will remain close because of their gravitational attraction. They're not affected because the universe's expansion effectively bypasses them. They just exist on an increasingly small share of the universe's volume.
      The real story is that dark energy's density may vary over time. A constant energy density means that as the universe grows, its dark energy grows. Since dark energy is repulsive, it hastens the expansion, leading to indefinite acceleration beyond c at some huge distance. When that occurs, from our perspective, the CMB will vanish from view, followed by galaxies in decreasing order of distance. Eventually, we will only see our gravitationally-bound neighborhood.
