Ask Ethan: Does Dark Energy Mean We’re Losing Information About The Universe?

As you look to greater and greater distances, you’re looking back in time in the Universe. But thanks to dark energy, what we can see and access today isn’t always going to be accessible. As galaxies grow more distant with the accelerated expansion of the Universe, they eventually recede faster than the speed of light. At present, 97% of the galaxies in the Universe aren’t reachable by us, even at the speed of light. But that isn’t the same as losing information. As a galaxy crosses over the horizon, its information never disappears from the Universe connected to us entirely. Instead, it gets imprinted on the cosmic horizon, the same way that information falling into a black hole gets imprinted on its event horizon. But there’s a fundamental difference between a black hole’s decaying horizon to the cosmic horizon’s eternal persistence, and that makes all the difference.

Come learn why even with dark energy, we don’t lose information about the Universe, but why the black hole information paradox is real!

From Pluto to food grown in space, NASA is having a great year. But even more mysterious than those discoveries, a spacecraft found two eerily bright lights on a distant dwarf planet.

Boy, look at you looking at me I know you know how I feel Loving you is hard, being here is harder You take the wheel I don’t wanna do this anymore, it’s so surreal I can’t survive if this is all that’s real
