The spin of the Milky Way's galactic bar has slowed by a quarter, say researchers
... also poses a major problem for alternative gravity theories,” Chiba adds. Alternative gravity theories such as modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) reject the idea of dark matter, instead seeking to explain discrepancies by tweaking Einstein's theory...
