No matter where we look, the same rules apply everywhere in space: countless calculations of astrophysics are based on this basic principle.

Should the measured values be confirmed, this would toss many assumptions about the properties of the universe overboard. The results are published in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics, but are already available online.
