Dark energy. The current estimates for the distribution of mass/energy in the Universe are approximately:
68% dark energy
27% dark matter
5% baryonic (i.e. "normal") matter

What is the big idea for space and time?
The big idea for space and time is that the universe contains matter. Gravity and energy influence the formation of galaxies, and all matter of the universe.
Scientists classify everything in the universe as?
If they are astronomers, they classify everything as 'interesting'. I think the answer may be something like "matter or energy". In fact, according to Relativity Theory, mass (of matter) and energy are in many ways equivalent. "Mass-energy" is a term often used to refer to this fact. Pretty well everything in the Universe is matter or energy,
Why do astronomers theorize that there is dark energy in the universe?
There are several pieces of evidence for dark matter. For example: * Our galaxy, and many other galaxies, rotate way too fast for the amount of known matter. * Evidence from gravitational lensing.
Where would you find visible energy and invisible matter in universe?
A good example of visible energy is found in the stars. An example of invisible matter is the "dark matter" that scientists believe surrounds galaxies. So, one answer to the question would be "in and around galaxies".
What is most of the universe made of?
About 5% of our Universe consists of baryonic matter; ie, stuff we fully understand. Our Universe also contains about four times more mass in some form we DON'T understand, and that's why we call it "dark matter." And about 75% of the energy of the Universe consists of something that is causing the rate of expansion of our Universe to speed up. It can't be something with mass, because mass would cause the rate of expansion to slow down. So it has be some form of energy we just don't understand -- so, for now, we simply call it "dark energy." These two entities have nothing whatsoever in common other than the first word in the description we humans have given to them.

Does dark matter/energy responsible for the expansion of the universe?
Yes. Dark energy is responsible for the expansion of the universe.
Do matter and energy make up the physical universe?
Yes, matter and energy make up the physical universe. Matter refers to physical substances with mass and volume, such as atoms and molecules, while energy is the capacity to do work or produce motion. Together, matter and energy are the fundamental components that comprise the observable universe.
What is the relationship between all matter and atoms?
In a way, matter makes the universe. The mater in the Universe determines the energy and size of the Universe.
What is all matter and all energy called?
Universe
What includes space and all the matter and energy in it?
The universe
