Is Einstein wrong? What is dark energy? What is dark matter? What is Relativity? On today’s episode, I talk with Jackson Said from the University of Malta about his research on Modified Gravity as a way to get rid of the dark “stuff” problem. We talk about gravity, Einstein theory of relativity and so much more.
