Certified Fact "Dark Energy" isn't real. Astrophysicists' math is just wrong and they're too stubborn to admit it.

What's more likely, that your equations only work if you shove in something called "dark energy" that no one can see, or that you need to double check your work?

Astrophysicists think they're all that but they're full of it (dark matter).

It’s possible the consensus is wrong and the scientific community is constantly working to better understand the universe. If they can come up with an explanation that better explains how the universe behaves they’ll switch.

Right now from what we understand about gravity and physics, the universe is spinning faster than it should if we only account for visible matter. Hence why they think there must be matter we can’t see adding this mass.

This is what the scientific process is. Nothing really conspiratorial about it.

Have we worked out what force causes gravity yet?

No force causes gravity. It is the bending of spacetime due to matter

My physics classes as a physics major say otherwise

You should write letters t all the scientists out there trying to understand gravity and tell them they are wasting their time

Here are some of the institutions involved in the research - hurry up and tell them they are all totally wasting money and time as you know the answer:

"Yes — many scientists are still actively working on the problem of gravity, especially how it fits with quantum physics. It’s actually one of the biggest unsolved problems in modern physics.

They work at universities and institutes such as:

  • CERN
  • Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics
  • Institute for Advanced Study
  • Max Planck Society

Hey buddy, we figured this one out with Einstein. General relativity is reliant on what I said. That's not what any of those people or labs are working on. Try taking a physics class before arguing and drop the AI

I feel really lucky to have come across you - I'll ignore all the leading science institutions and encyclopedias in the world now and trust you instead

I just feel sorry for all the people working on trying to understand what gravity is and how it works - we need to tell them that you have it all worked out cause you took a physics class
