Dark Flow

Dec 26, 2010 00:10

Astrophysicist Alexander Kashlinsky studying the microwave radiation background reports finding what he calls a dark flow, galaxies being pulled by something that is beyond the edge of the observable universe.   He said they seemed to be racing toward something in the direction of Centaurus.  The pull is so strong he thinks it may be tilting the universe.  He plans to use the new Plank spacecraft to make more refined measurements.  This was a totally unexpected discovery.
