    HAS XMM-NEWTON CAST DOUBT OVER DARK ENERGY?
    -------------------------------------------
    In a survey of distant clusters of galaxies, European Space Agency's
    XMM-Newton observatory has found puzzling differences between today's
    clusters of galaxies and those present in the Universe around seven
    thousand million years ago. Some scientists claim that this can be
    interpreted to mean that the 'dark energy' which most astronomers now
    believe dominates the Universe simply does not exist.
