Japanese astronomers using ALMA data have found the universe was about twice as hot 7 billion years ago, with a temperature of 5.13 K compared to today’s 2.7 K. The finding aligns perfectly with Big Bang predictions that the Universe cools as it expands, providing the most precise mid-epoch measurement yet and reinforcing confidence in standard cosmology.

A new study shows dark matter falls into cosmic gravity wells much like ordinary matter, narrowing one of astronomy’s biggest mysteries. Researchers say any unknown force acting on dark matter must be very weak, though future missions could detect smaller effects. The findings bring scientists closer to understanding how the universe’s unseen mass behaves.
