The Lithium Discrepancy: A Cosmic Puzzle
The origins of the universe are among the most profound questions in science, sparking curiosity and debate among scientists for decades. The prevailing explanation, the Big Bang theory, posits that the universe began with an incredible explosion, creating the building blocks of everything we know today. However, emerging observations present anomalies that have led to significant questions regarding the completeness of this theory. One such anomaly revolves around the mysterious absence of lithium, an element critical to our understanding of cosmic development and our own technological existence.
