The tension started to emerge from different datasets in the 2000s, mainly from the Hubble Space Telescope, and also recent ...

Last time I wrote about new data that overturns the standard cosmological model. Before anyone starts dusting off their fringe cosmological models, we should note what this new study doesn't overturn.

The reason the standard cosmological model is so popular could be down to computational mistakes or limited knowledge about its failures. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

How do you measure dark matter, which by definition emits no light? Watch how it impacts things that you can see — specifically, how light from distant galaxies bends around it, as predicted by ...

We can model the motions of planets in the Solar System quite accurately using Newton’s laws of physics. But in the early 1970s, scientists noticed that this didn’t work for disc galaxies – stars at ...

For a quarter century, cosmologists have treated dark energy as a fixed, featureless pressure that steadily drives galaxies ...

A meeting of prominent astronomers is being held under the theme, 'Challenging the Standard Cosmological Model.' With recent observational results contradicting modern cosmology, heated debates are ...

A Princeton-led team of astrophysicists has measured a value for the “clumpiness” of the universe’s dark matter that suggests the standard cosmological model might need to be revised It feels like a ...

Astrophysicists have measured a value for the 'clumpiness' of the universe's dark matter (known to cosmologists as 'S8') of 0.776, which does not align with the value derived from the Cosmic Microwave ...
