Researchers Discover 'Cosmic Glitch' Challenging Einstein's Theory of Gravity

A Canadian research team has found that gravity behaves differently on a cosmic scale, suggesting a potential modification to general relativity.

A team from the University of Waterloo and the University of British Columbia has identified inconsistencies in gravity's behavior over vast cosmic distances.
Einstein's theory of general relativity, while successful on many fronts, appears to falter when applied to galaxy clusters and beyond.
The researchers propose a new model that accounts for a 'cosmic glitch,' where gravity is slightly weaker across large cosmic scales.
This finding, published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, introduces a novel parameter that could adjust the gravitational constant for cosmic measurements.
Future experiments, such as those mapping the cosmic microwave background, are necessary to confirm this groundbreaking hypothesis.
