Q: How do you explain dark energy
A: honestly, it is something the scientists really haven't figured out yet. and i think 'dark energy' is a pretty lame name for it, and it is pretty obvious from that name that we don't really know what it is. but it is directly connected to gravity, which we also really don't understand. the entire world wants to fly apart (because of 'dark energy'), and everything in it wants to fly together (because of 'gravity'). and i guess no one can exactly explain why this is happening, but the way i see it if these 2 things weren't happening we wouldn't have a universe. so
