Evidence for Modified Gravity Found in the Motions of Binary Stars
There are two leading explanations for dark matter, massive particles that don't interact with regular matter apart from gravity and a subtle difference in how gravity behaves at large distances. Astronomers have studied the interactions of over 20,000 binary stars with wide orbits cataloged in Gaia data. They found that orbital accelerations of the stars match the predictions made by modified Newtonian gravity and provide compelling evidence for the MOND hypothesis over the dark matter being a particle.
