Theory predicting an older universe without dark matter or dark energy passes key cosmological tests
An alternative model in which the universe is 26.7 billion years old and needs neither dark matter nor dark energy has held up against several major cosmology tests, according to a new University of Ottawa study.
AI Summary
A University of Ottawa study has shown that an alternative cosmology model, which proposes the universe is 26.7 billion years old and does not require dark matter or dark energy, passes several major cosmological tests. The research, titled “A Big Bang Nucleosynthesis Consistency Test of the CCC+TL Cosmology,” was published in the journal *Universe*. The findings suggest the model remains consistent with key observational constraints used to evaluate the standard cosmological framework.
