A New Theory of Gravity Just Passed its First Test. Here’s What This Means for Physics
Erik Verlinde’s emergent gravity theory makes sense of the behavior of gravity without the need for the existence of a dark matter particle.
Researchers from the Leiden Observatory have studied more than 33,000 galaxies to see if Verlinde’s theory checks out.
This, if confirmed, is kind of big deal, and has potential to turn our entire view of the universe upside down.
And only 4 notes, of course.
