In 1990s, models with a cosmological constant were gaining momentum (e.g. Efstathiou et al. 1990, Krauss and Turner 1995, Ostriker and Steinhardt 1995) In the late 1990s, the first direct evidence for acceleration (Riess et al. 1998, Perlmutter et al. 1999) In 2000s, numerous observations strengthen the argument for dark energy (CMB, galaxy power spectrum, Lya forest, BBN, and so on) Do we really understand the true nature of the dark side of the Universe?
