Dark Energy
Summary
Scientists with alternate cosmological theories claim to have a more natural explanation for dark energy that feeds into their cyclical paradigm. A change in cosmology may change our view of dark energy from a deeply mysterious force to one that's deeply integrated into a different paradigm.
