The big bang and all generally accepted theories of the development of the universe are based on an isotropic universe. That is, a universe which looks the same in every direction overall. Fine details will be different of course but you’ll find the same basic structure everywhere you look. This was confirmed by the Wilkerson anisotropy microwave probe, the famous WMAP.
What this article indicates is that since 2003 data has been accumulating of universe is not isotropic in a number of critical ways.
This is why science can be trusted. It keeps checking on itself. And when science finds that it is wrong, it doesn’t struggle to make weird excuses; it admits it was wrong and seeks a more accurate model of the universe. If this data continues to accumulate, our views of the nature of the universe we live in will change dramatically. If.
What we can state with certainty is that whatever the facts are, science will face them.
