TL;DR Summary

Recent observations suggest that our galaxy may exist in a void, an expansive region with significantly less matter. This finding challenges the Hubble-Lemaitre constant and demands a reevaluation of the standard model of the universe. The theory supports the concept of modified Newtonian dynamics proposed by physicist Mordehai Milgrom. Further research is needed to validate this hypothesis and resolve the Hubble tension, a discrepancy in the measurement of the Hubble constant. Alternative theories of gravity and the reluctance to overhaul the Lambda-CDM model are also discussed.
