How did the universe evolve from the Big Bang to today — and why is its expansion accelerating? Professor of Cosmology David Fonseca Mota and researcher Farbod Hassani at the University of Oslo have received NOK 40 million from the Research Council to investigate these questions.

 A field of galaxies in space, dominated by an enormous, bright-white elliptical galaxy that is the core of a massive galaxy cluster. Many other elliptical galaxies can be seen around it. Also around it are short, curved, glowing red lines, which are images of distant background galaxies magnified and warped by gravitational lensing. A couple of foreground stars appear large and bright with long spikes around them.
