Waaaaat! I just figured out dark energy is thanks to that Katie Mack podcast (thanks for the recommend) and now it's changing? Damn physicists finding out things!
It’s a great podcast. Great discussions, concepts explained easily, but as with almost all cosmological stuff, as soon as the podcast/show is over, I’ve forgotten 97% of the detail :(
That thing you don't understand? It's different and changing.
Well, okay, I guess?
