Major new find by DES
Published in IOP Science on 8 Feb 2018, summary at on Space.com. Redshift Z=2 means that UV emissions are redshifted to terrestrial-visible wavelengths. Very neat. LeadSongDog come howl!  16:21, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

The Dark Energy Survey → Dark Energy Survey – This article itself favors leaving off the "The" more often than not. Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 23:46, 12 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Support per WP:THE. Rreagan007 (talk) 02:19, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Support per WP:THE, per the survey's website title, and the prominent central use of DES as a name at the website. Randy Kryn (talk) 01:14, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Support Request appears perfectly reasonable. Kintpuash (talk) 12:51, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Suppot. Pretty standard WP:THE. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:14, 19 May 2018 (UTC)

What do results mean?
Results are stated as technical facts such as numerical measurements. Those of us who are not experts would like some plain English explanation. For example, under Cosmology, what do we learn about cosmology from these measurements? Do we learn that standard cosmological models are contradicted, or supported, or neither?
