I am not ignoring gravity....gravitational anomalies in the universal expansion is the first order effect that led to the presumption of a universal reality that is represented by the concept of dark energy.. Observing gravitational anomalies of universal expansion itself is not a measurement of dark energy... There is no measurement of dark energy...there is measurement of gravitational anomalies caused by dark energy....this is not the same thing as measuring dark energy...Science is not saying that gravitational force itself is dark energy..... Interesting thought though....Ben, you keep ignoring gravity. Why?
We detect gravity and dark energy in the same way. We measure an effect on matter and KNOW that something we don't understand is working.
The measurements of one effect, we call "gravity."
The measurements of another effect, we call "dark energy."
You can deny the measurements or the names science has given them, but you can't claim gravity and dark energy aren't measured. The measurements came first, then people named them. In one case "gravity," and in the other case "dark energy."
So which FACT are you currently denying?
