I hope everyone who has travelled to see the eclipse today has the best of weather and enjoys the wonder of totality! ☀️🌑 In the meantime, there's some big astrophysics news. A research group using JWST data has claimed that the crisis in cosmology is SOLVED. They've got a new value for the current rate of expansion of the Universe that agrees (within error) with the value we get from our best model of the Universe. That's despite the fact that we've already heard from a different research group using JWST data in the same way who claimed that JWST made the crisis in cosmology WORSE. So what is going on?! You can bet this week's video is going to be on this...
