      At last someone has come up with an explanation for Dark Matter that meets Occam’s Razor (never back a theory that requires continual tweaking as new facts emerge). In a nutshell, neither Dark Matter or Dark Energy exist. They are fudge factors to explain why predictions using ‘simplistic’ interpretations of General Relativity do not match observed reality. In other words scientists are using the wrong equations because the correct ones are too difficult. They are using averaged values even though such values do not work over cosmic distances.

      The article is very interesting and surprisingly easy to read. The comments point out that there are other instances in science where similar fallacious approximations are being used and possibly outrageous predictions being made.

        My maths is barely up to day to day needs but I’ve always thought dark matter was a convenient fudge.
