Researchers find a "cosmic glitch" in gravity, modifying Einstein's formulas to explain inconsistencies on a cosmic scale.

Researchers from the University of Waterloo and the University of British Columbia have discovered a potential "cosmic glitch" in the universe's gravity, which may explain inconsistencies in gravity's behavior on a cosmic scale. The new model, called "A cosmic glitch in gravity," modifies and extends Einstein's formulas to resolve the inconsistencies of some cosmological measurements, without affecting successful uses of general relativity. This discovery could be the first clue in solving a cosmic puzzle across space and time.
