The recent study conducted by the University of Ottawa presents compelling evidence that challenges the traditional model of the universe. The research, led by Rajendra Gupta, a distinguished physics professor, integrates two theoretical models: the covarying coupling constants (CCC) and ‘tired light’ (TL), known together as the CCC+TL model.
The CCC+TL Model
This model explores the notion that the forces of nature diminish over cosmic time and that light loses energy over vast distances. This theory has been rigorously tested and aligns with various astronomical observations, including the distribution of galaxies and the evolution of light from the early universe.
Implications of the Findings
The findings suggest that the universe is 26.7 billion years old, negating the necessity for dark matter’s existence. The research indicates that the accelerated expansion of the universe is due to the weakening forces of nature, not dark energy.
