Tantalising hint that astronomers got dark energy all wrong

The basic assumption of standard cosmology is that dark energy is constantw with respect to time. It has turned out that this need not be the case: there are indications that dark energy evolves with time.

There were many similar hints in the recent past, reflected by claims that dark matter was more abundant in the early universe, time disappearing from universe and so on. In dense aether model expansion of Universe as perceived by Hubble red shift is the result of light scattering on quantum fluctuations and scalar waves of vacuum (i.e. intergallactic dark matter). This scattering is wavelength dependent though and as such nonlinear because the light redshifted by scattering get more prone to further scattering in avalanche-like way. This brings the notion of variable dark matter or energy.
