cosmological constant supports MOND


Quote by juanrga View Post
Agree with your conclusions but not with your reasoning. That MOND is a correct theory is well-established in basis to hundred of observations. Claims that MOND is dead are unfounded. MOND is well alive, but as you say DM does not exist

What are you going on about? MOND has been quite thoroughly discredited. It simply cannot come close to explaining current observational evidence, particularly cluster data and the CMB.

You have absolutely no idea of the topic.

As I said, MOND cannot explain the CMB, nor can it explain clusters. The bullet cluster, for example (well, technically, it can explain the bullet cluster...as long as you add some dark matter, which defeats the entire purpose of MOND).
