Universe expanding faster than physics can explain — New evidence deepens cosmic ‘crisis’

The universe seems to be breaking the speed limit set by our best physics models.

When scientists measure this expansion rate (known as the Hubble constant) using nearby objects, they consistently get a higher value than when they measure it using light from the early universe.

This discrepancy has persisted for years , leading astronomers to wonder if our understanding of cosmic evolution needs a major overhaul.

The study found that the Coma cluster is approximately 98.5 million light-years away, with a margin of error of about 2.2 million light years.

This measurement conflicts significantly with predictions based on cosmic microwave background observations.

The findings suggest that our understanding of cosmic expansion may need revision, as multiple measurement methods consistently show discrepancies with predictions from early-universe observations.
