Propelled by the discovery in the late 1990s of the accelerated expansion of the universe, an unknown energy called dark-energy was hypothesized to be responsible. In February of this year a team of astronomers reported that this dark-energy resided within isolated supermassive black holes. In this paper the Space Dual of Einstein’s Relativity (SDER) in physics, first published in a 2008 SPIE article, will be seen to theoretically support this finding. The SDER theory is anchored in the medium duality formed by a vacuum and a black hole, both extreme mediums for the motion and retention, respectively, of mass-energy. It will be seen that while motion’s speeds have ‘the speed of light in a vacuum’ given by c = 2.9979 x 108 m/sec as an upper bound that led to Einstein’s relativity in 1905, retention’s paces have ‘the pace of dark in a black hole’ given by χ = 6.13 x 1063 sec/m3 as an upper bound that led to the SDER in 2008 and its theoretical support for the finding by astronomers that dark-energy resides in isolated black holes. χ
