「 The team found that one hemisphere actually hosted slightly more of these quasars, suggesting one area of the night sky was more massive than the other, undermining our conception of dark energy, a hypothetical form of energy used to explain why the universe is expanding at an accelerated rate 」
The Guardian had a good write-up about this, and I'm intrigued by two things:
One is the evidence that the universe isn't isotropic (iirc that's a 5 sigma study)
The other is “evidence for cosmic flows – vast celestial rivers of material on a scale that cannot be readily accommodated within conventional theories”
