"Our analysis shows that the solar system is moving more than three times faster than current models predict," says lead author Böhme. "This result clearly contradicts expectations based on standard cosmology and forces us to reconsider our previous assumptions."

No wonder I felt dizzy this morning…or maybe that was Vertigo?
We have an accurate measurement of our velocity compared to the Cosmic Background Radiation. If this result contradicts that I would suspect the new result to be inaccurate.
Wouldn’t this play into dark matter or dark energy accelerating us?
Whenever ‘origins of the universe’ pops up in a discussion, I again question why no one seems to consider the possibility of a universe reset as a starting point – a re-birth instead of a birth.
Especially when every few decades a new paradigm pops up, everyone still seems to plot out the universe from the same starting point – the big bang.
Why always the big bang instead of the ‘black hole universe,’ or the ‘cyclic universe,’ etc.
It just seems silly to start from the idea that before this universe there was nothing.
Dear passengers,
please fasten your seat belts and put the back of your seats into an upright position. We will be experiencing an unusually fast and uncomfortable flight for the foreseeable few billion years.
Don’t hesitate to ask the cabin crew for further information.
It’s probably best not to think too much about how fast we are moving and in how many directions.
If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour you’re gonna see some serious shit.
So our solar system is moving faster but the universe is slowing down? I almost got recent articles confused, thinking they were contradicting.
