Unveiling The Enigma Of Hubble Trouble: Neutron Star Collisions Illuminate The Universe’s Expansion
In recent years, the field of astronomy has found itself grappling with a significant quandary. While we have long been aware of the expansion of the Universe and have a rough idea of its rate, the two primary methods for gauging this expansion seem to disagree. However, astrophysicists from the Niels Bohr Institute have proposed a novel approach that could potentially resolve this ongoing cosmic conundrum.
The Expansion of the Universe:
Our understanding of the Universe's expansion dates back to pioneers like Edwin Hubble, who, approximately a century ago, meticulously measured the velocities of numerous galaxies. These galaxies, driven by the expanding cosmos, are continually moving away from each other, resulting in a cosmic expansion.
The rate at which galaxies move apart, di...
