In this review, Howell describes how large surveys are generating sufficient data to challenge and refine existing theories. Empirically, Type Ia supernovae are the most useful, precise, and mature tools for determining astronomical distances. Acting as calibrated candles they revealed the presence of dark energy and are being used to measure its properties. However, th... | |
