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 ...

A new study using the Dark Energy Survey (DES) final datasets suggests potential inconsistencies in the standard cosmological model, known as ΛCDM. If confirmed, these findings could fundamentally ...

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 ...

The cosmological constant, which explains how and why the universe is expanding, has been previously described by astrophysicists as “the worst prediction in the history of physics” due to its ...

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 ...
