After 2 years in space, the James Webb telescope has broken cosmology. Can it be fixed?

For decades, measurements of the universe's expansion have suggested a disparity known as the Hubble tension, which threatens to break cosmology as we know it. Now, on the eve of its second anniversary, a new finding by the James Webb Space Telescope has only entrenched the mystery.

Do we live in a giant void? It could solve the puzzle of the universe's expansion

One of the biggest mysteries in cosmology is the rate at which the universe is expanding. This can be predicted using the standard model of cosmology, also known as Lambda-cold dark matter (ΛCDM). This model is based on detailed observations of the light left over from the Big Bang –…

Universe may have resulted out of a ‘Big Bounce’, says Italian physicist Carlo Rovelli

Carlo Rovelli is an Italian theoretical physicist who has written several popular-science books. In his latest work, White Holes: Inside the Horizon, Rovelli explains the theoretical existence of white holes – the converse of black holes. The latter is believed to be the ultimate graveyard of all matter from which…
