Could both of these be explained by looking to a part of the universe that we’ve largely ignored so far? Could cosmic voids be driving the universe?

Surely people have realised by now that both dark energy and the expansion rate is the universe can be figured out by discovering where all those missing socks end up?

Always find it fascinating how our little star system is in a little bubble of unusually empty space, off a minor arm filament, in a small galaxy cluster, part of a relatively small super cluster, in the centre of a massive void bubble. We're really out in the boonies

The PBS Spacetime/Dr Becky cinematic universe is for sure the most meta cinematic universe. More crossover events!

That animation at 11:40 is so amazing. Just the idea of cosmic bubbles breaks my mind.

As a science daydreamer I always wondered about the baselines of Time and Space in a region devoid of galaxies and the clusters. I thought it must be fascinating how the Universe acts when its empty of everything apart from light and neutrinos.

I love the idea of cosmic voids as bubbles. Makes perfect sense

I cannot believe how much time and expertise is requested to create videos like this, that are simultaneously simple and detailed. Just a huge thank, and congratulations.

"It's not silly to wonder about this stuff" should be the physicist's mantra.
