NASA warns: 'Something strange is happening to our universe'
Scientists at the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) are studying new data from the Hubble space telescope and say something strange is happening to our universe.
Observations show that other galaxies are moving away from our Milky Way galaxy much faster than previously calculated, according to the ABC of America.
As observed, galaxies are moving away from the Milky Way faster than before
Nobel laureate Adam Riess, of NASA's Space Telescope Management Science Institute (STScI) and Johns Hopkins University (Baltimore, Maryland), said the biggest update on the Hubble constant and results The results of the distance markers of the galaxies show that the cosmic distance has expanded twice as much as before.
"The rate of expansion of the universe and markers of cosmic distance are, by far, the most accurate measure by the telescope's gold standard," said Riess' team.
Scientists examining new data from the 32-year-old Hubble space telescope are trying to determine how fast the universe is expanding and how much that expansion is accelerating, through a number known as Hubble constant (named after astronomers Edwin P. Hubble and Georges Lemaître, who first attempted to measure the universe in 1929).
The Hubble constant is a very special number. It can give scientists a long-standing view of the universe.
However, scientists have not been able to figure out why this strange phenomenon occurs in our universe.
NASA officials said in a press release: "The cause of this strangeness remains a mystery. However, something strange is happening that may be related to a complete physical transformation. all new".
