Two cosmic ‘thermometers’ argued for decades over the expansion rate of the Universe. It turns out the culprit could be an invisible force that briefly accelerated the world’s growth right after its birth—like yeast added to dough. New data from Webb have nearly settled the debate among astronomers.

🎯 In the brief moment when early dark energy was active, the Universe may have expanded more than it did in the billions of years that followed.
