NASA's most powerful telescope detects something unexpected happening to the universe
"NASA's most powerful telescope has spotted something unexpected which could overturn our basic assumptions about the universe.
Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), scientists from Johns Hopkins University have taken extremely accurate measurements of the distances between galaxies.
These observations reveal that the universe is expanding eight to 12 per cent faster than our current best theories predict.
This suggests that there may be some unknown force which explains why the universe is expanding faster now than it was billions of years ago.
First spotted by the Hubble Space Telescope in 1998, it was previously possible that this acceleration was caused by nothing more unusual than a telescope error.
However, using two years of JWST observations, the researchers have now shown that Hubble's shocking findings were not mistaken.
According to lead author and Nobel laureate Professor Adam Riess, this shows that our understanding of the birth of the universe could be totally wrong."

"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked. "Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad." "How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice. "You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."
