They're finding that giant superclusters of galaxies are flowing towards

brought up decades before, it was something called the Great Attractor.
Space aliens in the Star Nebula made an LHC and punched a hole in
spacetime. Everything is draining. Our only hope is to punch another
hole ourselves to balance the flow. Now, you explain it to me.
They should've called this one the "Great Celestial Drain". It looks
like somebody pulled the Great Celestial Stopper on our Universe and now
we're flowing down the drain.

Anyways, it seems like this is the second time this year that a paper
has likened the Universe to a body of fluid. The other time was when the
theory of Dark Fluid was put forward which seems to explain both Dark
Matter and Dark Energy as subsets of the same thing.

Hint: curve fitting is not the same as science. If it were, we'd
still be enjoying epicycles.
I say where there is smoke, there is fire. Or in this case, where there
is flow, there is fluid. We're living in a big fish bowl, probably quite
literally!
