Using the first data release of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), this study demonstrates that galaxy correlations follow a power-law decay without transitioning to spatial homogeneity up to scales of approximately 400 Mpc/h, with density fluctuations exhibiting extreme-value statistics rather than the Gaussian distribution expected for a homogeneous universe.
In short: The universe isn’t a calm, flat ocean. It’s a wild, churning sea of mountains and valleys that might never end.
