Hello.
I'm not sure if this is an A level thread however I'll just post it here.
I have a question that regards dark energy in relation to space time.
I've learned that dark energy only affects space and not time. However I've also learned that space and time are intrinsically intertwined as shown through general relativity.
And so how can dark energy only affect space and not time? Is the reason unknown, or is there some type of property within dark energy that makes it so it can't affect time?
Regards,
Daniel
