I found this on NewsBreak: Dark energy could be getting weaker, suggesting the universe will end in a ‘Big Crunch’
The first year of Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) data seems to show that dark energy is weakening over time, possibly the biggest cosmological discovery for 25 years.

I found this on NewsBreak: Scientists finally make ‘goldene’, potentially breakthrough new material.
Researchers have managed to create “goldene”, an incredibly thin version of gold.
The work follows the successful production of graphene, which is made out of a single layer graphite atoms. That has been hailed as a miracle material: it is astonishingly strong, and much better at conducting heat and electricity than copper.
Goldene is built on the same principle, with researchers spreading out gold so it is just one atom layer thick. And, similar to graphene, scientists say that the process gives it a variety of new properties that could lead to major breakthroughs.
