Einstein's Theory Of Relativity Validated Through 3K Galaxies Map

Einstein's general theory of relativity by is true according to a galaxy map. A 3D map of 3000 galaxies that is 13 billion light years away from Earth has been designed by an international team of scientists led by Japanese researchers. During the late 1990s, scientists have been on the works of explaining the discovery of the constant expansion of the universe at the tremendous rate.

Einstein's general theory of relativity suggests that the phenomena have been caused by a dark matter increasing acceleration. Due to this, gravity produced a warping motion that affected space and time resulting to a break down.

Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics  project research head Teppei Okumur, together with Kavli IPMU Project Assistant Professor Chiaki Hikage, University of Tokyo Department of Astronomy Professor Tomonori Totani, Tohoku University Astronomical Institute Associate Professor Masayuki Akiyama, and Kyoto University Department of Astronomy Associate Professor Fumihide Iwamuro and Professor Kouji Ohta has put Einstein's theory to the test by surveying and analyzing the velocities and clustering of more than 3000 galaxies.

Okumura said via Science Daily, "We tested the theory of general relativity further than anyone else ever has. It's a privilege to be able to publish our results 100 years after Einstein proposed his theory."

Having to relate a century old theory to modern research is a huge advancement in both science and technology.  Professor at Swinburne University of Technology in Australia Karl Glazebrook who first proposed the idea mentioned that "Having started this project 12 years ago it gives me great pleasure to finally see this result come out."

Having Einstein's theory validated today is a leap of success for modern scientists. No one has tried to observe as much galaxies until now, being a breakthrough in the field of science, Astronomy Now reported. The survey has been conducted in 2012 to 2014 using a Subaru Telescope. It has been more than a hundred years since Einstein proposed in his theory.
