An international team of astronomers has overturned a longstanding belief that stars and dark matter interact in a mysterious way to create uniform density structures across different galaxies. This finding, published in 'Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society (MNRAS)', challenges a theory that had perplexed scientists for 25 years.
The research team, which includes scientists from Australia, the UK, Austria, and Germany, utilized the Very Large Telescope in Chile to observe and analyze 22 galaxies that are approximately four billion years old. The results revealed that the perceived uniformity in galaxy density may not be a real phenomenon but rather a consequence of oversimplified models used by astronomers.
"This homogeneity suggested that dark matter and stars must somehow compensate for each other in order to produce such regular mass structures," said Dr. Caro Derkenne, the study's lead author and a researcher at ASTRO 3D from Macquarie University.

“oversimplified models”
That perfectly summarizes the entire history of science in two words.
Garbage in = garbage out.
Follow the science.
Follow the garbage.
[Galaxy Density]
Oort was this scientist, and he figured out... that the smeared-out density of matter can be no greater... than the solar mass per cubic parsec
The dark matter is between their ears…
I get a kick out of all these Carl Saganlike astronomers that try to understand the cosmos without God. They have to change their far out ideas daily to omit their s=dependence on an omnipotent God. Yes, He has given us a mind to try to understand His workings but to try to ex[plain how something came from nothing because of string theory or multiverse theory, or some other manmade theory. I love how the Web Telescope is forcing them to come upp with all new theories. “In the Beginning God . . .”
Great quote!!!
Drivel
Sorry, wrong Galaxie.
“An international team of astronomers has overturned a longstanding belief “
In other words, they DKS. (Don’t Know Shite)
In another study, an international team of astronomers has overturned a longstanding belief and discovered that the earth is only THOUSANDS of years old, and that global warming/climate change is a HOAX.
It doesn’t matter whether you believe in God or not, ultimately, everybody is obliged to believe in an uncaused cause. So there’s really no need for the kind of smugness that atheists express in showing their contempt for believers.
So some galaxies are more dense than others.
Which is good to know.
Get those teleportation portals working and let’s relocate to a more enlightened galaxy.
More consensus science shamed.
In the beginning God...
100% !
Thank-you.
Yup.
