Media Coverage of Astronomically Large Lenses Measure the Age and Size of the Universe Press Release

Using entire galaxies as lenses to look at other galaxies, researchers have a newly precise way to measure the size and age of the universe and how rapidly it is expanding. The work, led by researchers at SLAC and Stanford’s Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology, was published in The Astrophysical Journal on February 18, 2010.
