  Berlin, Germany (SPX) May 13, 2025 The afterglow of the universe, known as the cosmic microwave background (CMB), provides critical insights into the early cosmos and the formation of the first galaxies. However, researchers from the Universities of Bonn, Prague, and Nanjing have presented calculations suggesting that this radiation's strength may have been significantly overestimated. If validated, their findings could challenge the standard model of cosmology, potentially reshaping our understanding of the universe's origins. The ... read more |
