This model has been in testing for 3 years and it passed all tests so far.
It already past sevral test and it solves a lot of problems that require dark energy or matter. And problems introduced by the James Webb telescope. It also confirmed cosmic chronometer findings on the expansion history.
It does not disprove models, it just shows that dark matter and energy are not needed and explains why we can’t find them.
There was also research lately, that the universe could be indeed twice as old.
Every week for the past 10 years a Youtube video has come out claiming we’ve found a galaxy that breaks all of our models and that it can’t possibly be that old. Then it goes into a circljerk about MOND vs whatever framework is juiciest that day.
Maybe it’s the math that fucking sucks. Maybe we keep LARPing that we understand the universe because it makes us feel better about our insignificance.
Ok but if we aren’t going to be dismissive know it alls the JWT has posed a lot of new questions about the universe including pointing out that we very likely have quite a lot of things wrong in our established science regarding the universe
Which IMO is pretty damn exciting! Best part of science, finding out we had something wrong
No, if i remember right, it was about misinterpreting the distance/light of the stars we use to determine the age.
I assume it’s all the same “tired light” stuff. It feels like a few researchers keep trying to drum up hype for the idea in the mainstream media because they can’t convince the actual experts. The media loves fringe ideas which claim to upend the status quo, but there’s a massive difference between sensationalism and truth.
What exactly is “tired light”?
