Indranil Banik
Indranil Banik is an astrophysicist at the University of Portsmouth known for his research into the expansion of the universe. He recently proposed a groundbreaking theory suggesting that our Milky Way galaxy may be situated in the center of a vast cosmic void, a concept that could help explain the perplexing Hubble tension—a discrepancy in the measurement of the universe's expansion rate. His work involves analyzing baryon acoustic oscillations, remnants of pressure waves from the Big Bang that influence galaxy distribution. Banik's findings challenge conventional cosmological models and suggest that if we truly reside in such a void, it could have significant implications for our understanding of cosmic structures and fundamental physical laws.
