New international research has improved the accuracy of the parameters governing the expansion of the universe. This will help astronomers determine how the universe grew to its current state - and how it will evolve in the future. Małgorzata Bogdan, statistics professor at Lund University in Sweden, is one of the scientists behind the study. It is well established that the universe is expanding.
