NASA James Webb telescope revelations challenge Theory of Gravity
NewsweekStacy McGaugh, professor and director of astronomy, discussed his new research into traditional theory of gravity and how the first galaxies formed. “It implies that we have been barking up the wrong tree with dark matter,” he said. “The reason we haven’t detected dark matter in the laboratory despite decades of dedicated searches is because it is not there. That in turn implies that our theory of gravity is incomplete.”
