BREAKING🚨: Earth may be trapped inside a giant void in space, scientists say 
Earth and the rest of the Milky Way could be floating in a billion-light-year-wide cosmic void, according to new research.
By looking at the echoes left by the ‘soundwaves' of the Big Bang, a team of astronomers discovered that our corner of the Universe could be far emptier than we first thought.

If true, the theory could answer one of the biggest problems in cosmology, known as the Hubble Tension – the fact that how fast our Universe is expanding changes depending on how you measure it.
Astronomers have long battled with this issue. When they measure the expansion rate by looking at the distant Universe, it’s markedly slower than the value they get from examining our local corner of the cosmos.
