I really, really feel more people who are scientifically pragmatic and follow Cosmology need to learn about Prof. Dr. Pavel Kroupa and his views/research on Dark Matter and current research on MOND; including his own variant of it.

If you’d like to learn more about Pavel or MOND:

Wiki for MOND is a little messy but I found had some good links to better information if you want to do further research in relation to MOND.

    Remember that all theories are best when they fit our observations, make predictions and hopefully can be tested. When we’re discussing going all the way back to the origin of our observable universe, some version of the Big Bang is likely (Black Hole cosmology, hot big bang,  Penrose’s Conformal cyclic cosmology and so on). Origin theories are made of complex math with many believing that the least complex should likely be closer to the origin then ones that have a lot of fine-tuning and extensive fudge math (making math fit what your bias, not what’s probable/likely). Is it possible for RMOND/MOND variant theories to support a universe without a big bang variant, possibly, but it depends on what math you’re using to account for things like dark energy, the CMB, and other cosmological phenomenon that needs to be explained.

      Thanks for explaining in simple words things that are out of my reach.

      I couldn’t understand the first equation in that article (which has 148 equations) : Hamiltonian formulation of gravity as a spontaneously-broken gauge theory of the Lorentz group by Tom Zlosnik.

      I read through the blog post you linked from Dr. Pavel Kroupa, The Dark Matter Crisis which is more easy to understand. From that blog I get that an explanation of the cosmos without the Big Bang is far from the main focus now.

      Before writing to you, I was already convinced MOND is superior to LCDM and this for the same reasons you give in your comments and some more.

      I hope in the next decades we will see consistent cosmology theories not only without dark matter but also without a big bang.
