[Interview+] A NIAC Project That Could Crush The Hubble Tension

Watch here (with no ads) or on YouTube: https://youtu.be/MX3YWQVSjW8 Fast Radio Bursts can be a key to dramatically improving cosmic distance measurements. A NIAC project suggests using it for a global cosmic positioning system. But at the same time it could be used to finally resolve the Hubble Tension. How will it work? Finding out in this interview.🟣 Guest: Dr. Matt McQuinn 📜 NIAC project report: Solar system-scale VLBI to dramatically improve cosmological distance measurements https://arxiv.org/pdf/2602.09141 📜 Solar System-scale Interferometry on Fast Radio Bursts Could Measure Cosmic Distances with Subpercent Precision https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/2041-8213/acc947 00:00 Intro 02:12 What are Fast Radio Bursts 09:07 Measuring distances with FRBs 18:00 How to improve the accuracy of measurements 24:60 Cosmic Positioning System 43:11 Alternative use cases 51:18 Current obsessions 52:23 Final thoughts
