221:. Building on his work with SDSS, Frieman later co-founded and served as director of the Dark Energy Survey (DES) with the goal of collecting data that would help physicists determine which theoretical models explaining the increasing rate of the expansion of the universe might be correct. The Dark Energy Survey began its observations in 2013 and concluded them in 2019. These observations produced a large amount of data, which the DES collaboration is still analyzing. In 2004, Frieman was elected a fellow of the 233:

In these roles, he led measurements of the large-scale structure of the universe and of 194:'s Theory Group. Afterwards, Frieman became a scientist at Fermilab in 1988. He was head of that lab's Theoretical Astrophysics Group from 1994 to 1999. During the 1990s, one of the topics he studied was 794: 662: 222: 636: 749: 703:
