The idea that our planet and its surroundings are inherently special probably sounds unscientific to you. But according to a growing pile of evidence, our galaxy actually does exist in a special place – more specifically, our planet and the space surrounding it (out roughly a billion light years in each direction) is strangely devoid of galaxies. Astrophysicists have called it the “local hole”. This used to be somewhat of a fringe idea, but a group of astrophysicists just released a new data analysis that supports the idea that we live in a hole. Let’s take a look at what this means for physics.
