When and how was the dark energy created?
Dark Energy may be evidence of higher dimensions, e.g. caused by an interaction between the two parallel universes: Ekpyrotic Universe Many fires: multiple big bangs. If the 2 universes attract it causes acceleration of each universe If the 2 universes collide it causes a big bang m0 Bulk Dimension
