I couldn&#x27;t find a way to integrate it naturally in my post. I don&#x27;t see any information about globular cluster movement in that image. Naturally the confinement wouldn&#x27;t be 100%, and some amount of gravity would still &quot;leak out,&quot;[1] so the mere existence of globular clusters isn&#x27;t proof one way or another. Surveying globular clusters offers a good test. RG might (or might not) explain why globular clusters are mysteriously 1) preferentially orbiting perpendicular to the primary galaxy&#x27;s rotation, perhaps due to stability, and 2)…</p><p><a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1603.04943/">Paper and discussion history</a>.
