Dr. Becky | Huge blow for alternate theory of gravity MOND

A new research study was published this month claiming to have completely ruled out an alternate theory of gravity called MOND, that doesn’t need dark matter to explain our observations of the Universe.

They used the same data that four other research studies have used in the last couple of years, but used a more rigorous method, and their results now contradict the findings of those other papers.


So what is going on here?
