4 days ago · According to a fundamental theory of cosmology called the cosmological principle, matter in the universe should be uniformly distributed on very large scales. The reason this matters is that by assuming uniformity, scientists can apply the same laws of physics to nearby objects as objects at the fringes of the early universe.
