Hmm. News to you, I guess? For folks with a mild interest in science,
dark matter and dark energy have been interesting topics for at least
a couple of years now. The breakthrough was confirmation of what had
been expected for some time before.
The work cited demonstrates a couple of useful things: One, that in
science, observation trumps theory, and Two, that surprises can await
*within* a well-established theoretical framework like the Big Bang.
Regarding the thread name - As a talk.origins reader I can only answer
the question as 'yes' in the sense of "first verses of Genesis" as a
metaphor for the beginning of the observable universe. I don't see
this cosmological work as offering any illumination on the actual
text.

I await with interest your own comments on the article.
