In Episode 7 of I’m Finally Reading My Brother’s Book, Clay and Gavin dive into the cosmic mysteries of dark matter and dark energy—the invisible forces that make up most of our universe. Why do we call them “dark”? How much of the cosmos do they actually account for? And what do they reveal about the story we’ve built for the universe’s history?
Along the way, we explore the limits of our current cosmological narrative, unpack the idea of quantum inflation, and reflect on why the human drive to understand the universe matters just as much as the science itself.
Join us as we navigate the unknown and wrestle with the fact that most of the universe remains hidden, yet still shapes everything we see.
