Gravity Without Dark Matter: The Entropic Approach Triumphs ⚡ экспресс
Original: "Comparison of MOND and Verlinde's emergent gravity in dwarf spheroidals"
Dwarf galaxies have shown that gravity may not be fundamental, but emerges from the informational structure of the cosmos.

In 23 tiny galaxies, they tested which of two alternatives to dark matter is more accurate. Gravity emerging from entropy and information outperformed modified Newtonian dynamics by 5.2 sigma — which is very solid. Dark matter might be just a temporary patch, with the real answer hidden in how the Universe encodes reality.
🎯 If you found yourself inside such a galaxy, the naked eye would make out only a few stars — the entire rest of the sky would remain inky black.
