What if the Universe Isn't as Uniform as Scientists Think?
What if the Universe Isn't as Uniform as Scientists Think? A study based on 47 million galaxies found that the cosmic web retains patterns on enormous scales, which could force a reevaluation of a pillar of cosmology. One of the fundamental pillars of modern cosmology may be beginning to wobble. A study published in Nature has found evidence that the universe may not behave the same way in every direction on the largest observable scales. "What we found is a network of enormous filaments and walls of galaxies that remain aligned and interconnected across billions of light-years," says Francesco Sylos Labini, research director of physics at the Enrico Fermi Research Center in Italy and the study's lead author.
