John Moffat: Modifying Gravity & The Dark Matter Myth ( youtu.be )
Been Studying alternatives to Dark Matter and the rabbit hole has led me to MOG/STVG by John Moffat. The video I’m sharing is a long and great interview by Curt Jaimungal with Moffat. There are plenty of MOND-like alternatives to Dark Matter and all may be proven wrong should science make further progress discovering Dark...

Probing the mysteries of neutron stars with a surprising earthly analog: Ultracold gases in the lab could help scientists better understand the universe. ( arstechnica.com )
[…]to accurately interpret some of the neutron stars’ signals, researchers must first understand what goes on inside them. They have their hunches, but experimenting directly on a neutron star is out of the question. So scientists need another way to test their theories. The behavior of matter in such a superdense object is...
